There seem to be two predominant shools of thought. Passion for what one does vs. ROI. Everyone needs to figure out their priorities. The figuring is the toughest part. Do I eat and have a job, which I may or may not like, tomorrow or fly because it is what I want to do? Tough decision ... For me, given even a short horizon I would take the flying gig.
You know, when you're younger, they tell you to do what you love and the money will come.
Then you get older and you know that's absolute BS.
When you've got a mortgage to pay and don't like living one or two paychecks or one medical mishap away from bankruptcy, that do what you love stuff starts to sound really trite.
The solution?
Work to live. Don't live to work.
