It’s a byproduct of our society to ask what value your work does rather than you as a person. A better question would be “what stuff are you interested in?” I bet taking that spin will actually make people stop and think a second not only because it’s not the normal question, but people have lots of interests and now they’ll have to pick one that they want to share.

Your work is what survives after you pass. Your interests don’t.
That’s not a byproduct of contemporary society, always has been.
