Eventually I want to subsidize my income with other creative outlets that are going to not keep me tied to the road so much.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I have developed a life which seems to need a relatively high income.
I love finding new creative partnerships but then continuing the partnerships I'm already in.
I don't want money to ever drive my career. I want my career to be driven by what I want to do in art.
Growing up in a lower-income family, you don't have the resources to make ends meet and you have to find creative ways to get by.
Subsidize... or lend.
I'm trying to make enough money where I can be financially independent and be able to go and just pursue that thing that everybody really needs, just pursue my family and the cause of my family.
It's ironic, really, because I've spent the bulk of my career making my living in a very commercial realm: network television. And yet, my sensibilities don't necessarily line up with how I pay my rent.
I want to be able to manipulate and control my career from the creative side.
I don't want to make money; I want to make a difference.
As long as I can make lots of money in other businesses, I'll continue to subsidize my own work.
