Have these "fears of a dead end job" been effecting anyone else a little more lately?

I resolved the problem by installing a mod that simply removes all fear. This way I can tend to the Wants when the moment arrives to make it possible to fulfill them and gain the points. But, I thought one of the last patches was to correct this thing? So glad I didn't remove aforementioned mod, that much is certain. I was honestly waiting for my young Rock Star, Global Superstar to get said fear. He's as happy as a clam? (And by the way, how do we even know if clams have emotions?) LOL Yeah, I'm so not sold on the Wishes & Fears thing. At all.
