photography rant

This has just been bugging me

why do so many people want to be photographers?
the median salary is only like 26,000 a year.
and if you start your own buisness its going to be hard to build clients, especially without professional editing and shoot materials and a college degree. And the cost of opening a buisness alone will set you back thousands of dollars.

If you ever plan on having to pay for responsibilities, that probably won't cut it alone.
you'd probably need a second job.

its a long shot.
and practically anyone with a camera thinks they're a brilliant photographer.
there's always going to be someone better than you
i think its a hobby.
but maybe i'm too much of a realist...

First Post!

Well basically I'm a straight up realist. I like to post my honest opinions about life. I'm also willing to give real advice for questions people ask me. I'm a nice person but I do think realistically all the time and I do know a lot about relationships. Don't be shy, ask whatever.
