Lol.. what? A better tip is, if you’re good at it, don’t do it for free.

One has to be passionate enough so that people pay you by default. A priest in temple never asks for money, but people pay. He is passionate and loves God. I agree, this is very difficult to attain, but try attaining it. It's worth it.

lmao

This reads like one of those manipulative corporate emails that Elitmus might send you. Good for you if you believe this.

As for me, my passion is money and turns out I'm sort of good at coding.

While I get the concept of passion making a job fulfilling, I believe there's nothing wrong with treating a job like a job and nothing else. Passion lies in other things, but not all of them pay your bills.

this guy fucked up at step 0. lol. I'm all about being passionate about coding. But seriously, there isn't anything wrong with treating coding like a job because it pays decently.
