Depending on who you ask, a "9 to 5 normal job" is sacrificing family and freedom. Women in particular hate this diverging life path because they can't have both career and marriage/kids, but everyone both men and women ultimately have to find a compromise that works for them.

You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Well, between a 9 to 5 and a 9 to 9 (including the weekend) many would prefer the former. The latter is risky and may not pay in the end or it could pay a lot. Many people who have families can’t afford that risk.
