I'm jealous. I'm in my early 30's and I function the best when I get 8-9 hours of sleep.
I wish it would have kicked in when i was a bit younger instead. I quit doing construction because I couldnt possibly get enough sleep to even make the drive to and from the jobsite safe, my health and safety is far more valuable that the money i was making, so i told them if i couldnt work less than 14 hour days i wasnt going to keep working for them. I could likely manage it these days with the lesser requirement for sleep, though i probably wouldnt, because everyone else was fueled by cocaine and meth and it just isnt worth being crushed. No thanks. Ill take my self employment and being poor, but having enough free time to enjoy being a caveman, over being middle class and busting ass all day long.
