I took it to mean he's not talking about stepping away from responsibilities, but from cultural bindings.

As the lifelong individualist I say that's all well and good, you have to pick and choose the bits of culture and tradition that you like and which to throw away.

But pick the wrong things to throw away and the usual first step is being poor because culture/society won't reward you any longer.

I recommend sticking with the traditions of using deodorant, eating with utensils, and wearing pants.
