If it would destroy the economy if everyone did it, then it should not be doable in the first place.
That's true for teachers, too.
If it is a lifestyle that would destroy the economy if everyone had it, then that's another story.
If everyone went to work every day for 8+ hours for the direct benefit of the members of their community, the economy and the community would both be incredibly healthy.
If everyone purchased the tools that other people need to live and work and decided to rent those out instead of doing their own labor, the economy and community would fail.
This should be incredibly obvious.
