However, sometimes there are amateurs with an ability to rival professionals, some of whom earn a living as , gamblers playing for stakes.

In spite of the growing community of scientists, for nearly 200 years science had been the preserve of wealthy amateurs, educated middle classes and clerics. At the start of the 18th century most voyages were privately organized and financed but by the second half of the century these scientific expeditions, like James Cook's three Pacific voyages under the auspices of the British Admiralty, were instigated by government. In the late 19th century, when this phase of science was drawing to a close, it became possible to earn a living as a professional scientist although photography was beginning to replace the illustrators.

He also issued regulations for the yukatchu in 1730, banning prostitution, which blossomed at the time and disrupted the noble nature of the aristocratic class, and setting mandates regarding the status of illegitimate offspring.

Johnston was born into an affluent New York banking family, which subsequently moved to Mount Vernon, New York. Initially he studied painting and illustration at the National Academy of Design in New York, but after graduating in 1908 (and marrying fellow student Doris Gernon the next year), his subsequent efforts to earn a living as a portrait painter did not meet with success.

Thus, in 1952 Aguirre enrolled in a drama course, dictated by him at the Chilean Academy of the Ministry of Education.
The dealings of Bartoft, whose ruthless love of power leads him to the domination of the life of a small town in Lancashire, are often subtly drawn. Again fraudulent accounting and the workings of finance capital are exposed at some length, though more laboriously and with less effectiveness here, and the book certainly lacks the suspense-filled qualities of I’d Do It Again. By this time Tilsley found he could earn a living as a writer, and other novels followed in quick succession, I’d Hate To Be Dead and She Was There Too (1938). Whereas the central figure of I’d Do It Again begins by trying to be fair and decent before succumbing to the temptations of embezzlement, the narrator of I’d Hate To Be Dead is hard-bitten from the start, an unpleasant, indomitable self-made man, who makes and loses fortunes in a colourful, brutal life.
French edition The novel's central character is Étienne Lantier, previously seen in L'Assommoir (1877), and originally to have been the central character in Zola's "murder on the trains" thriller La Bête humaine (1890) before the overwhelmingly positive reaction to Germinal persuaded him otherwise. The young migrant worker arrives at the forbidding coal mining town of Montsou in the bleak area of the far north of France to earn a living as a miner. Sacked from his previous job on the railways for assaulting a superior, Étienne befriends the veteran miner Maheu, who finds him somewhere to stay and gets him a job pushing the carts down the pit. Étienne is portrayed as a hard-working idealist but also a naïve youth; Zola's genetic theories come into play as Étienne is presumed to have inherited his Macquart ancestors' traits of hotheaded impulsiveness and an addictive personality capable of exploding into rage under the influence of drink or strong passions.
