Antiwork

Wanting to switch career paths but can’t afford any downtime?

I work a fairly good job at the moment but also have a lot of expenses. I have ambitions to branch out into a slightly different field related to my education but I have no clue how I'd ever have the time to do it unless I just work full time and go to some sort of professional program or self-learn…? Has anyone done such a thing? For the specifics: I'm currently a data scientist at a video game company and want to move into game development, specifically to make my own game ideas a reality. I really hate that it's a possibility my ideas will die with me because I'm forced to choose between money and genuine creative passion that could inspire others… sigh.
