It can be. For some. I bet most people's lives in my time would seem charmed for someone from the 1400s. We don't have to farm our own food or hunt or cook. Most things are readily available in grocery stores, we drive cars everywhere so we don't have to walk. There aren't monsters stalking the streets at night, no vampires or demons or anything like that. Hell, those things don't even exist.
