Most don't have this luxury, and have to eat what moldy bread they can get their hands on.

There isn't enough to go around in most places.

The rest of my comment above addresses the lack of non-crappy projects available which I suffer from dearly as well, I can assure you.

They're few and far between in my neck of the woods too!

tl;dr work for yourself... figure out how to make some money selling something or trading or consulting and do it.
