What is a good career for a music lover?

I know how to play piano but my boyfriend can really play almost any musical instrument. When I listen to his music, it's like its inside me, I definitely have rhythm for it. At an early age, he'd been engaged with several lessons and when he'd grown up, he wanted to learn into a conservatory school but his parents won't allow him. So, do you think that there's really money with a music lover?

There's a money in music career, all we have to do is be productive. Know how to get more earning through music. My dad used to teach in a violin class, sometimes some of his friends call him to have tutor on piano too. If you are an artist type you can become a music artist. Dream more!

thank you for sharing that, my boy friend used to have his own band when he is in high school. he also tried to teach piano with kids on summer and now, he's been busy with his compositions. though, he's really not selling them. he's just dedicating it to us (with me of course, and our daughter)

There's several things you learn at a university music course about making money from music. One is to run your career like a small business, research into how to make music to appeal to the desired public market, how to network your music and get it alot of public exposure. It is alot of work, but personally, I do it for the love of music, not the money or fame.
