It's ok to want to be rich, but wanting something you won't get is unplesant, so people often rationalize they are there just for fun.

Certainly for me it works that way - if it's hobby project, I can't fail at it. If it's business I do to be rich, and I'm not rich in 5 years, I've failed.

Having fun seems to be easier to achieve than commercial success, and for some people (like me) it's easier to do sth, if it seems achievable.
