Do you do what you love for work?

[Madman31]

I was thinking about all the answers in that retire early/rich thread and some people said why retire when you love your work? Look at Warren Buffet. That makes a lot of sense. It reminded me of this speech by Jobs http://news.stanford.edu/news/2005/j...bs-061505.html

That made me google how to find what you love to do and this came up first

I can definitely see some ideas I can pursue that I feel I would love doing but financial security is always bringing me back. Anybody here manage to make good money doing what you love to do? How long did it take? What's it like?
