Programming != money
If you entered programming with a mindset of, "I should be able to get a car within the next few months", bro, you'll drop it within those few months.
Check popular programmers, what keeps them pushing is their zeal and the "I won't stop until the codes work" mindset, it has never being the money in it.
Note No offense in putting money in consideration, but don't set it as priority. ** Code first, sip that coffee, money will come.**
