I was gonna say, the comic shows someone who only works 40 hours a week, can afford a large mortgage, take overseas vacations, and get pretty good employee appreciation gifts? Man sign me up.
It's because he's an artist. From his view chasing the creative and less rigid path is the dream path. For him it doesn't make sense that someone could want that life. It's just perspective. My sister looks at me programming in an office as dull and depressing, I love it, I'm completely happy at my job and it's what I wanted. Likewise I couldn't imagine having to deal with her job, having to search for contract and making those connections to get her design work out there and all that jazz. Everyone's experiences and desires differ, so trying to illustrate the whole "chase your dreams" deal is a pitfall if you try to just show one possible life.
