Hobbies are a useless waste of time if you can't monetize them. They won't help depression either cause depression is mostly circumstanial, the only panacea for depression is having a lot of money, not being a wage slave, and having agency to make what you want in life. Oh lots of sex too.

Yes, I'd be much happier with a billion, than I would now. I've had hobbies before, and even though I've enjoyed them it gets boring if there's no extrinsic reward like money or recognition or both. I enjoy making art, but it gets old quick if there's no end goal other than just making a bunch of art that just sits in room and does nothing.
