Late to the party as usual.

Why would anyone in his right mind get into folk music to make money?

I would be suprised if there were a group of professional performers making less money.

Then, of course, if you want to be a folk musician with credentials you also have to pay for the degree.

A joke you'll sometimes hear from traditional fiddlers in the states:
"I used to be a professional musician, but I had to quit for health reasons....
I was starving to death."
