Chris, would you have fared better with a 9 to 5 job?

Chris, speaking strictly from a financial perspective do you think a regular 9 to 5 job would have afforded you a higher (material) standard of living than becoming a metal guitarist? Would love to have some insight in that to be able to put things into perspective. Thanks!

I think if I had the same dedication for a job career centered around money that I have for the guitar I would have made a lot more money. However you can't deny your passion, or even worse try to manufacture it and with that in mind I would never consider another career unless I had to. This brings me back to the point that I have been very lucky and appreciate the opportunities I have been given.
take care, Chris
