      Gurley argues society pushes people toward safe jobs out of worry about economic well-being, not to stifle creativity.

      “I always wanna say that because I don't think I don't think anyone's out to stifle creativity per se, but they worry. They worry about the kids' economic well-being.”

      Gurley argues society pushes people toward safer jobs out of well-intentioned worry about economic well-being rather than malice.

      “They worry about the kids' economic well-being. They worry about, you know, their ability to have a family and put food on the table, and and they push people towards safer jobs.”
