This is interesting. I just finished listening to an old episode of This American Life about this same subject. http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/370/r... (it's the prologue if you want to listen) the story was about

In the arts, like in any field, you only get better by immersing yourself in it and it's hard to do that when you have to treat it like a hobby rather than a job. Ask yourself what level of talent you would have right now if there was zero

That's a sad way to approach a career. Really, most industries are an "underpaid ghetto" by those terms, especially for women. Wouldn't any person be better off "psychically" to do a job they enjoy and are driven to pursue? I don't feel li
