    You do not need to objectively benefit from a positive outcome in order to enjoy it. My local sports team wins at least once per blue moon, and I feel good despite neither profiting from, nor contributing to their successes.

    I can understand if it doesn’t do it for you, but I’ve found a great deal of joy in things that do not materially benefit me. I like it better that way.
