I totally agree with this. I'm a musician but I could never turn it into a full-time career that could get my bills paid on time (or at all).
I'm not sure how things are in Sweden, but in the USA there is a huge need for mental health professionals. It probably wont make you a millionaire, but there are jobs available at non-profits and in the public sector that pay decently and allow you to make a tremendous positive difference in the lives of others.
