Art seems like a side hussle or a hobby not a main job. I can’t think of a faster way to hate your own passion.
I wanted to work as a programmer but getting a degree tought me I’m too poor to do it as a job as I need 6 more papers and to know the language for longer than it existed to even interview to earn the grind. Having fun building a stupid side project to bother my friends though.
Exactly. I can code and make a simple game app. If it gets some downloads, maybe pulls in a little money, I’m happy. But I’m not gonna produce endless mtx and ad-infested shovelware to make shareholders and investors happy. I also own a 3D printer. I’ve done a few projects with it and I was happy to do them, I’ve even taken commissions to model and print some things, but it’s not my main job as there’s no way I could afford to sit at home and just print things out all month.

My only side hussle worthy skill is fixing computers and I rather swallow a hot soldering iron than meet a stranger and get money involved.
