What if hobbies are your life?

Many people say that you can't make a career out of a hobby, because if you do, you may end up regretting making money out of your life passion. I agree with that, but for me, the hobbies I have have been my life ever since I was a kid. I am an artist and I love video games and animation. I want to keep these things in my life forever. I can't picture myself in a job where I am just working to make money to keep on living and don't have any room for the things that I love.<br><br>When I tell people that I want to make a career out of my hobbies, they tell me that I might end up hating them. But the point is, I just can't see myself in any other hobbies than these, just for fun. They have been my life ever since I was a kid. I just can't deal with the idea of getting a completely different job than the one that I want for myself, and then keep doing my hobbies during my free time. I would rather die than keep these hobbies off just for the sake of making money, because they are my life, my future, and my dreams.
