This article discusses the benefits of having a 'pure hobby' that you perform for personal enjoyment (not necessarily to turn a profit). Whether your chosen employment enables you to purchase a home (as a single individual?) seems completely tangential to the point of the article. I rent and have non-hustle hobbies. They give me something to do during my evenings and an outlet for personal expression. Also the results of my hobbies are usually suitable as gifts to friends and family. I am not trying to monetize them for the same reason as what is mentioned in the article: the hobby becomes work; stress increases & enjoyment goes down; you lose the positive influence the hobby had on your life.

There will always be capitalistic and opportunistic people who view every moment of their life in the framework of "how can I profit off this situation?". Those hustlers aren't going away. The flip side is there are also people who recognize the value of internal alignment and seek that instead of capital/wealth growth.
