Hi Ibmzr.
Whether Hashem wants YOU to spend most of your day making money, I dont know.
But I do want to add a more positive spin to your outlook on “making money”. Earning money is very important. Money can accomplish many vital, important, and holy things.
I cannot tell you the complete list of gadolim throughout history who worked in business at a trade and in a profession. One would assume they did not do so giving their occupation short shrift.
Secondly, none of us know how “lasting” a specific job is. Certainly, if someone is going to pay your for something, it has importance to them, and to the bigger picture. It is not only the quarterback who wins the game.
What IS lasting, is how one performs at their job. Any person can make any job a kiddush Hashem, or chas veshalom not.
I once read in a foreward to a book, that a “Ben Torah tries to handle EVERYTHING that comes his way better than the average person”. That, I recommend, is the hashkafa we should all bring to the workforce. Our actions are certainly lasting.
