This is my drive.

I worked for over 35 years, to have enough money to be able to work on stuff I love to do.

I'm not rich; and never will be, but I have enough, not to be worrying about starving. That's a rare luxury.

And I work on the kinds of things that I want to work on; not that someone else wants me to do for them, so they can make a bunch of money. Most of my work is given to people and organizations that can't afford talent like mine.
