it's not only about the money young fella. A long and uncertain project without any income like that is a tough sell for any relationship.

You say it's not about the money, but then you mention income again. What is it about then?

Lots of things - ambition, status, judgement from others, resentment that you’re not able to do the same.

Money is probably a prerequisite to being able to do that at all, but it’s not the entire deal.

Yes, I saw that. But saying something like that and then mentioning nothing but money (income) is a little confusing.
