Sounds familiar to my standard answer to someone who says they really love their job. I say, "OK, so let me ask. If your basic needs were met as if it were mana from heaven, and you could spend your days doing the things you love, are you saying you would get out of bed in the morning and go do <name the job here>". Some people would. My son the musician who has figured out how to make a living in the music industry would. My wife, who works with school age children with disabilities probably would. I, on the other hand, would not, and I do not believe most people would.

That it isn't just this forum where someone asks a question, someone else answers it, a bunch of other members ignore the answer and post a bunch of terrible advice, and then the OP restates the answer that was in the 2nd or 3rd reply like they figured it out themselves.
