I have always believed in following a passion rather than money. There are two practical issues with this premise of "do whatever it is that you like doing". 1. Most things that kids or people like doing cost money -- Horses or Horse Riding lessons are not cheap! And.. 2. Even if the cost was not an issue and we assume that in spite of economies of scale, there will be a market for most things people like to do, it is an assumption that everyone would like to do something constructive.. the problem is that without proper direction or focus, a lot of kids would do nothing constructive i.e. play video games and smoke weed.
