Many teens can't wait to grow up an be free, then they reach an age and realize how complicated it can all be.
Do what you love and do not expect the money to follow, or do what pays and lets you afford your hobbies. If you're decent at the latter, there may come a point where you can afford the former.
Probably the best career advice I ever got was "You need to screw up enough to get noticed." That's easier to do when you take risks than when you are on autopilot.
