Leave Ethiopia out of it. You can be fulfilled without meeting basic needs, although technically, it is your definition of basic needs is different than most people.

A wise man once told me two things: "Do what you love and the money will follow" and "create multiple streams of income."

Those statements have allowed me to be one of the most expensive instructor on the field, on an hourly basis. It has prompted me to have multiple streams of income, so I can easily take or leave potential clients. It allows survival while I gain the jet hours needed to move on to the next instructing level, or decide if that is really what I want to do. And, it allows survival and gives me something to do while I sit on the ground waiting to heal enough to get back to flying and instructing.
