If there is a forever project, maybe you shd just get started on it full-time - it might be 'the one' http://statspotting.com/2013/01/that-one-idea-that-does-n

  Yes, I think if you are really obsessed with something for over 10 years, it's time to make it your life's work and not a side thing. But maybe the point is that you don't want that to happen as you lose your forever project (if it gets done) or fall out of love with it.

    Not everything worth doing makes money though...

      No, but I don't think that's necessarily the point of a forever project nor of life in general. It's not a goal of mine nor of none of my friends who have one; most of the projects from people I know cannot even make money even if (partly) completed. Edit: If you mean, you need money to live; you of course need some money, but not as much as most people think. Which makes it a question of priorities mostly. There are plenty of fantastic places where $600-700/mo will get you far, even without losing that much from your 'previous life'. You have to sacrifice things obviously, but not that much (depending on what you are used to).
