I get that sentiment but Ive personally experienced both sides with two hobbies turned career. First was as a magician, I loved it as a hobby but as a profession is sucked the fun right out of it. Then I started working dping security assessments of software (hacking stuff) it was also a hobby now I'm paid to do it. Turning it into a profession did not suck the fun out. I'm not sure why one worked amd the other didn't but my experience is that turning a hobby into a profession is not always a bad experience.
