My solution: I am a book publisher (age 50, 25 years in publishing). But during my life I found that I deeply love programming too in a way you mentioned – solving problems. Small, private conundrums. Sometimes creating simple apps. But just as a hobby!

If I had to make money by coding, this all would be gone.

So: do another job and code for fun. :)
