"The problem is, that I want to make games."
If you want to make games, make them. Don't let anyone tell you they are impractical and you should work on accounting systems or card games for grannies or whatever. It is not that they are necessarily wrong (or right), but it is your time and your life
Make some small games first. Only the actual making (especially completing) of games will teach you if it is something you want to do fulltime. You can think of business aspects once you have some tech chops.

You can think of business aspects once you have some tech chops Want to see the 14th revision(Version 0.1.3) of an increasingly tricked out tetris clone? Or for that matter, want to see my in-progress network branch of my tetris clone? I also have some experience with canvas and javascript, which will become the future of gaming. I already took your advice and have some technical chops. Some knowledge I am missing is mostly mathematics, less so web application development, and most importantly business acumen.
