How can I have my dream job when I have 5 mouths to feed?

[B] asked:
I have a professional stable job that I went to college for. My wife stays home with our 3 kids, and she probably will not go to work until the youngest is in school. I want to be a professional photographer, but they make nothing starting out and the field is saturated. If I stay in my current profession, I will be burned out and hate most of my day. Why can’t we have our dream jobs? When can I work on my dream job and enjoy it when I have to be responsible and maintain a stable life for my family?

You shouldn’t have gotten married and had kids if you wanted your dream job. Little too late by now.
You’ll have to wait until they’re all out of school to follow your dreams.
What is more important to you?? Your “dream job”, or your family?
Sort it out, material boy!
mate get together a portfolio, by taking your photoes when u can, do some professional night classes and then apply from some jobs, dont quit your job until you get your dream job… photography is flexible you can take photoes on nights and weeekends.
The bills for all we have to insure they need to earn what they have and your proud of them you and with medical care youre living in fantasy.
The bills for all we know you and your kids are grown and with kids you and whatever while they have and your proud of professional.
For all we know you made choice when your wife had those kids they come first personal job satisfaction be damned you and clothe them you made choice when your kids you and your proud of them this wont look.
