I've lost 2 long time hobbies this way. Made something because I wanted something better and I like making stuff. Then I made it for a few people for free. Then made it at cost for a few more. Then people wanted it and I started selling for profit. Soon I was spending all the time I would be doing my hobby making parts because I have to. Got burnt out by my hobby and never wanted anything to do with it again. Twice.

Same. I do the fun thing and get the food-money from it. It's -3 outside, a balmy 26c in my home office, and I really hope I can do this until I retire and do this on contract.

People that get into a hobby for the purpose of making it a hustle tend to crash and burn (there is an occasional success, but rare) because they lack the knowledge and experience that comes with having been in the hobby.
The tabletop/Warhammer community is overflowing with commission "pro painters" who bought an airbrush and a bunch of contrast paints and immediately started advertising. They might get some bites, but commission painting lives off of repeat business and word of mouth. Neither of which are driven much by beginner level contrast painting and airbrushing.

Quickest way for me to kill a hobby is to start getting paid for it. Then I irrationally begin to hate and loathe it.

I've... never really understood why people always have to monetize themselves and their passions. It's very weird in my view.

Cause money is the ultimate reward.
