Easy to say for a multi-millionaire. So, the advice is: get a great job as a cartoonist, make $450 million and then quit.

No, I think the advice is, figure out a material lifestyle that you can feed with a reasonable job, so that you have time left to enjoy LIFE!

Without a good income source, a life filled with things that matter to you is very difficult. Watterson has presented a false alternative.

Hm. Live outside the city, close to family, doing something creative doesn't have to cost much. Its a true alternative, lived by millions.
