> If there is no money and instead civilian egalitarism what or who decides who lives in a mansion on the beach or a small city appartment? How does Picards brother „own“ the family vineyard?

The usual answer when this question is raised is either "they inherited the land" or "a committee decided the the Picards were the best for tending the vineyard".

Not 100% convincing to me but there is no better answer AFAIK.

> And what do people do with their life? Is there a 5 hour work week?

That one is easy, though. Let me quote Jean-Luc Picard: "The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in our lives. We work to better ourselves and the rest of humanity."

Such an endeavor takes time.
