There’s nothing wrong with posting a thread with your question. Just try to gather 4 or 5 questions together into 1 thread every couple of days.

In regards to your question: think of it this way. There’s a painter. He loves painting portraits and towns, he loves painting views of inner cities, and everything he lays his eyes on. Painting is his life. Now, how would it be, if the love of his life, brings him absolutely no income? Would it be inappropriate? No. Is it mournful? Possibly, but it’s not the best choice. Is it awkward? Unexpected? No, it’s not awkward nor unexpected. There are a lot of painters out there who make pennies. The correct feeling he’s trying to convey is that it’s unfortunate. He loves something, yet it brings him no income, which makes it an unfortunate thing.

Reason with yourself, within your mind, during the exam.
