The approach of a person who only cares about making as much money as

except to get in and out of my truck. But I cannot do that, life would
be too boring.

Absolutely! And therein lies the value of learning skills like
machining and welding if you already have a good "day job".
They enable us to do what we want, whether or not anyone else thinks
our projects make any sense. They don't have to make sense to
anyone else.

Yes. That's right.
