You have responsibilities now, like rent and food. You probably didn't have those when you were 13-20.
As I often say, when I was young I had more time than money, and now I have more money than time. I'd rather use my money to buy time, which sometimes means just paying for something that I would have hacked together myself in the past (like a DVR or a piece of software).
I still have plenty of passion, but it's for other things, like stuff my kids like to do, because then we get to do it together.

This observation is subtly touched on in The Dark Side of the Moon, by having Time and Money on different sides of the vinyl :)
