Can you imagine IF Superman really existed and he didn't use his power at all? That would really be waste.
I have a rich friend. she doesn't have to go abroad to live the good life. Heck, he doesn't even have to work either. His parents own a business which is stable to fund even his grandchildren. And true to the direction life is taking him in - he doesn't work. He spends the day in front of his computer almost whole day playing games, watching movies even, etc.
I have another friend - she's pretty, yet single. She's in and out of relationships, but hasn't really had any relationship I would call long. She's not exactly rich, but from a well-to-do family. But because of invites from so many guys, she gets to save anyway because all those guys inviting her out always pay for her while she still insists to. Her fear of not having the same status here as in overseas is what's keeping her from wanting to try looking for a job abroad. Of course because she's young I can understand that. That would probably change sooner or later.
I have a third friend - he works in a company his family owns. Because of this, his position is high, and he chooses his working hours. Because he picks his working hours, it's almost equivalent to doing whatever the hell he wants.
You wouldn't exactly call those "normal" situations. And if you were a stranger and you met people like these, you'd probably tell youself "it's not fair. I'm working my ass off at fixed time, my salary is meager, i don't have these opportunities blah blah".
The thing here is - those friends I have aren't doing any wrong, although they don't live their lives as you'd expect most people would. This is because THEY CAN. That's using your powers right there. I'm sure each of us has their own situation - one that is of power and you can use it. You just have to take a closer look at your life and you'll see it.
