I love to eat with a roof over my head, and I love to sleep in a warm bed.

The vast majority of jobs will give you food a roof and a bed.

People start doing the jobs they don't want because they want a large house, two model-of-the-year cars (leased of course), the 40+ inch HD tv, etc etc etc.

Doing what you love is easy to say but most people choose to forgo doing what they love to own (or at least use temporarily) what they want.

This perspective may be correct for well educated upper middle class and above. But thats a small part of the U.S. and an even smaller part of the world. The vast majority do not have jobs they love and have little choice in the matter and also do not have a large house, cars, etc.
