    My job vs my career
    Hello... I'm currently living with my parents, 28 years old. I have a good job and planning on getting my own place by next year. I'm doing a lot of overtime so... Well you get it.
    I'm also a musician - I play the guitar- that's what I want to do for the rest of my life. The music doesn't really pay much and I need to work so I can move out.
    I've been getting a lot of gigs recently (music) which is good for my career and I'm starting to get noticed... but still not enough money.
    The music which is my career is getting in the way of my job (truck driver)
    What should I do? Should I go for the money or my career? Sorry English is my second language...

    You have to eat and pay bills while you work on that desired career. Most artist or creative types work to pay rent while they practice their craft until it can sustain a life that they can enjoy. Could take years.
