Yes greg, you're so right. For those of that opinion I think Dylan's line "There's no success like failure" would aply. So the best job would be failed folksinger.

Judging by the contents of these pages over many years, there is often evidence that some people actually disapprove of people singing folk songs being professional musicians. There is also a considerable hostility to the more thoughtful or wordy professionals being allowed to sing folk songs at all: schoolteachers, librarians and social workers are often singled out for derision. So I thought, let's approach it from the other angle entirely. What, in your opinion, would be the most OK profession for a singer of folksongs?
