This is generally true. My brother is a musician, and he struggles to find work. I got lucky growing up working on programming projects until 3am for fun, then being interested in database research and later AI research several years before people started paying attention. I think we need a UBI so that the people who don't want to build stuff can do what they want instead of going into marketing or sales, or anything that's a net drain or neutral on society.
