For me, being interested in something implies that it's even possible in the first place.

Seems like a highly nihilistic view of the world. Not everyone can afford the risk of trying to make it as an entrepreneur in the present moment, but to say that means they aren't or shouldn't be interested in it is a bit depressing, no?

I don't think nihilistic is the word you're looking for in this context.

It is...to not be interested in something because, whether real or imagined, you don't think that thing is "possible" to achieve is a very nihilistic perspective on the world. You are saying you have no interest in something because you feel hopeless to even believe it is possible.
