Yeah, that's what I've found out. It's easy to think that you need to work some medial job just to pay the bills. And sometimes you do. But even though maybe it will be harder to start, you really need to be utilizing the area(s) you're passionate in. You'll be the happiest, most fulfilled and most successful that way, and you'll end up with a lot more money too, if you keep at it. It's really very important to be aware of this and push for it. I know way too many people who get stuck forever in some shitty, worthless job (as opposed to career) and it really grinds you down. Not to mention a job usually means you'll be making some hourly wage that always leaves you needing more to really be comfortable and stress-free.
