I enjoy teaching and, provided I was guaranteed my needs and reasonable comforts were provided, would continue to teach for free. I doubt Altman’s talking about passionate people pursuing their passions free from the threat of financial ruin.

Bingo! People love being busy when it's about passionate work or enjoying their hobbies.

Altman passion is to make more money. He is a venture capitalist primarily, making billions on his previous investments in tech companies. He is not a human existence 99.9999 % of us can emulate.
