They sure can and they can make a fortune from doing so. Just like Warren Buffett and his menial job...

At 13, Buffett took what could have been a mind-numbing job as a paper boy and turned it into a competition with himself. Buffett woke up at 4:30 in the morning to deliver copies of The Washington Post, and he challenged himself to find ways to serve each of his five buildings faster.

Can you feel the passion here folks?

This thread is not about making money per se  but about doing something you love and doing it better. To live clinically bored is to be imprisoned into a part life. It will flow into all areas of a person's life and relationships. It is a pity when someone makes money in a way that is boring or worse, stressful, especially if they are making substantial money, money can be a doorway to freedom or it can be a doorway into life imprisonment.

That is true of any profession. Not everyone can succeed in a chosen career, that is why so many people move into different areas of work throughout their working lives. In earlier times a job was for life, whether you liked it or not. These days people look to the quality of their lives and move away from stultifying or dead-end jobs.

.....or the desire to keep doing something which is not enjoyable for them. I can see how someone would see what we do as mind-numbingly boring, most people have a higher expectation for their lives.

You are right duc, and I guess it is up to each one of us as to how we choose to live our lives.
