Sorry if this duplicates, my machine glitched. I just wanted to comment that unless you are independently wealthy, money has to be a big concern - which means either doing something commercial or getting into academics. I would love to have a business in ANY field that would provide enough residual income to allow me time to pursue my own ideas long term.

I agree. I have a work that pays me well now (it was hard to do the transition between what paid me well and what I liked but didn't pay because I didn't know about... I'm now at some point in-between). I'm not starving, but I have to work full time. But I'm keeping away from business stuff, at least for a while, to learn more of the things I find worth learning.
