I do it because if I can suffer more than most people there's some place in the world for me.
I've thought of this, too, almost as a ... redemption strategy. Like, I may have fucked up almost everything, but if I steer into this storm, maybe I can still pull it out, just because nobody else will be doing it on purpose; or at least, so few people that it might as well be nobody.

It's similar to pretty common startup advice. Paraphrasing:
"When choosing between two otherwise equal things, pick the harder one." This was Naval I think. IIRC the rationale was that we subconsciously bias ourselves away from hard things.
"Hard things are often a sign that something hasn't been done before." I think this was PG.
