Why are you trying to tell this guy what he should value? He wants to do work that interests and excites him, and he's making the tradeoffs that balance his personal set of values - with, incidentally, far more information than you have about what those values and specific tradeoffs are.
Pursue your own balance of values with passion, and allow others to be meaningfully different from you. Their desires don't diminish yours.
