Then why not just do the things you want to/can instead of the things you have to? I am unemployed and surviving since last 4 years and being creative every day. In between I am also doing what I really want to do. I have raised my bar really high to weed out the shitty employers and companies after 16 years in the industry and focus on what I want to do. I believe the money will just follow. It always has for me.
