    willing to pay for this

    Capitalism. You shouldn’t strive to profit off doing things you enjoy. The profit motive IS the problem.

        Only if you’re lucky. I loved programming. Used to do it all the time. Got a job doing it, and it’s just exhausting now. So much gets caught up in the process: money to survive, meeting other people’s deadlines and goals, etc. It kills the enjoyment.
