I know the answer is that they are irrational, won't let go of the dream, sunk cost fallacy, etc....but still, it's pretty crazy to live in poverty when you are high IQ enough to get a real job

Most full time adjunct professors (as opposed to industry professionals teaching a class on a lark) have no marketable skills whatsoever. None.

some people would rather be poor and do something theyre passionate about than check commas and be richer. i think thats admirable.
