A friend’s boss retired to become a children’s book writer.
Money–or lack thereof-- is what really hinders most of us to do what we want. I grew up admiring polymaths and I want to do whatever I want because I want to learn about the world. But it is in the past couple of years which I realised, that the polymaths I admired? They are rich while I’m not. Polymaths in the past were more common back then because they inherited lots of money from their parents as safety net, and don’t have to worry about specialising and finding a “secure job” but is soul sucking.
