Yes! This is essentially how I aim to live. It was a conscious choice that was indeed inspired by ST:TNG in many ways. They do have money in the Star Trek universe, but it's extremely unimportant. Money simply isn't the basis for getting things done, even for massive undertakings.
My main financial goal isn't to become rich. It's to make money as irrelevant as possible in my life, so I can make decisions without regard to financial considerations.
The main characters in ST:TNG are extremely principle-centered. Their principles are more important to them than money, relationships, career opportunities, etc. Their principles are even more important than their lives.
In Star Trek, people do things because it's the right thing to do in accordance with their principles, not because they have to be paid or offered external rewards.
Similarly, if I write a new article or decide to record a podcast, I simply don't consider the financial aspect. It's irrelevant. I merely focus on doing what's right in accordance with my principles.
We don't live in a utopia, however. I still must attend to financial matters like taxes and paying bills. However, I do my best to make that as small a part of my life as possible.
In 2005 I wrote an article called
Lessons From Star Trek which many Trekkies have enjoyed.
I will say that I'm EXTREMELY happy with my decision to live this way. It has generated more abundance, freedom, and joy that I ever thought possible.
