Not sure how a guy sitting in a chair playing a video game is more lazy for not wanting to spend weeks leveling another toon or simply having the platinum so he doesn't have to.

If anything, sitting in a chair, playing a video game is lazy and saving weeks of time leveling up another toon, might give you more time to not sit in a computer chair, playing a video game, being lazy.

Do rich people in real life do mundane activities or do they pay someone to do it for them?

Yeah I said real life since you brought up the word "lazy" when referring to the human body entertaining itself while in a stationary position accomplishing nothing else but self satisfaction.
"Mundane activities?"

If you call playing Everquest a "mundane activity", then why exactly are you even playing in the first place?

If you don't enjoy the game, don't play it. Leveling a character is not a mundane activity in EQ, it is the core of the game experience. Yes, you can obviously do other things like trade, raid, tradeskill, quest and socialize, but all of those other aspects of the game are peripheral to leveling. They exist either to facilitate leveling or as a consequence of leveling. This is Everquest. The destination IS the journey.

The point is that you aren't entitled to play a high level character without leveling it yourself. It's entirely unclassic and has ruinous side effects on the community.
