The way I'm defining job here is by the work you do or way you want to live, but it doesn't have to be for profit.

My dream job is to conduct my own research in Gerontology and write novels on the side.
This all being by self employment.

Librarian. I'm a very private individual, and I can't really work in a stressful environment, so I need peace and quiet. I like books and information technology, and I like helping people. I don't really care about money. I just want to make enough to live in a comfortable apartment and live a nice, simple, inoffensive life.

I'll assume you're referencing everyone, and I said in the OP that job wasn't necessarily defined by normative standards, I just didn't have a catchier title.
My research isn't for money, it's for infinite possibility, and my writing would be for self expression for my life's anguish. If not useful to anyone else, these things are extremely useful to me.
And to an extent, I agree with you, why don't people seek ways of accomplishing greater goals outside of normative systems? I think it's because we don't really know how to do it.

tbh I'd love to be a sponsored artist for Ironlak and paint murals and burners.
Making videos like this:

YouTube

Or an illustrator for graphic novels.

Hell I'd even just love to sell prints and canvases of all the wacky shit I end up doodling.

Are economic constraints a primary concern?

I just want to be able to make a living. In the end, happiness takes priority.

Having this sort of work would make you happy as well though, right?
Do you think it's feasible to do?

I'm asking because I'm curious about how people view possibility in economic systems... for themselves, not for the general populace.

Feasible with a fuckload of work. You have to be skilled and unique to get some serious recognition in the art world nowadays. Even then, you still have to work on getting your art out there where people will notice it faster.

Yeah. with writing I have no idea how I'd proliferate my stuff so it could be noticed, assuming it was quality enough to be noticed :\
I'd be willing to do the work for it more readily it if I knew the way to get there.

Try selling some short stories to a magazine if they still do that. If not, go bother whichever famous author of whatever genre you're story fits into to give you some pointers.

Like I said, you have to be skilled and unique. There's no clean street to downtown unique. The road is more like a labyrinth.

Try not to worry about it. Just focus on passion, you do that end someone will notice you eventually. Then others follow.

Just make sure you actually get your work somewhere where it will can be seen.
