You left out the part about attacking, killing and enslaving each other. Plus, in reality, they probably had to work a lot harder than we do now for much less of a lifestyle than we live.

I'll keep my king size bed, air conditioner, nice hot shower and ice cold beer.

Until I read the history of the Creek Indians I never realized that once the market for deer hides ran out, that the Creek tribes enslaved other tribes, traded the slaves to the English for guns and then were able to take even more slaves.

I also didn't realize that the Creeks were a matriarchal society and the women owned everything and if a man and a woman got divorced the man had to leave and the woman kept all the stuff. (Kind of like it is now ) There is a common misconception that the women were second class in those days, but that wasn't the case with the Creeks. As a matter of fact it was quite common for white women to join the Creek nation, because women were treated much better in Creek society than in the white society.

My 6th great grandfather was a Creek chief, but he was already 3/4 Scottish. Whatever tiny bit of Creek I have in me dwindled down to almost nothing in my DNA over 6 generations of nothing but white folks.
