The reason of course is money apparently defines what is “good”.

    Probably you have a difference in opinion on whether your hobbies are perceived as ‘good’. I dunno: graffiti artist vs landscape artist.

    Both can be dedicated, get highly proficient and be lauded by a sub-culture. Some people will see one as ethically ‘bad’ others won’t.

    Granted as soon as they get a banksy on their wall and it’s worth money, most conservatives change their mind and sell it or charge admission. So there is a role for money to override peoples morality - but the dedicated graffitti artist can still be considered ‘good’ to their peers/gang/subculture even if it is worthless to others.
