Luckily passion and money in this industry aren't mutually exclusive, and I'm extremely grateful for that.

It's can also be difficult to work on Passion A knowing Passion B, 20% lesser, can pay 100%, or more, as much. Money can and do help overcome the relative lack of passion, especially on the margins, even if it may not replace it 100%.

With that said, I'd rather die than study women's studies for the rest of my life for ten times my salary[1].
