The people in these stories followed their passion and created wealth through it. What is your opinion on following one's passion in relation to wealth? Can your passion lead to an increase in your net worth? If yes, what is stopping you from following it?

I can definitely say, turning your passion into profit may sound easy as you already have the skills to deliver good results, however the hardest part is finding a good market and some excellent business and marketing plan. But at the same time, I can also say, there is a huge chance for you to succeed with it, simply because it is what makes you happy that you're not only doing it for money. But then again, building your own business may demand double or triple your effort compared when you're working for a company.
I guess the main reason why a lot of people did not dare to do it is because they are afraid of failure.

I can put myself in this situation as well. I had a talent in drawing and I really wanted to become a full time tattoo artist and build my own studio, but for that same reason, until now I haven't made even a single step to bring that closer to reality.

Getting your first client or selling out your initial product would be the toughest challenge that you would really be having specially if you are really that getting in line with your passion, its true that this is much

preferable compared on doing on something that you dont like but this isnt always the case because if you are in a situation on which you cant really be finding yourself to be that on that area but you dont have no
choice since you are really that needing to have an income, then you would really be finding yourself to make out adjustments basing up on what you are currently dealing with and despite on having
not that getting in line with your passion but you dont have any choice but to accept that fate. It is really just a matter of personal choice on what you should gonna do.

Increasing networth? It would be the least thing that you would be having in mind on the time that you have stick into your casual dayjob which you are really that get used to.
But there are people who are really that mindful about such stuff.
