Mozart's job classification was to write music, which he did for ballets and operas. He got paid to do that, and taught on the side. He wasn't a waiter. He didn't sell mutual funds.

Even in his heyday, when he was being commissioned to write pieces, Mozart was a starving artist. He partied, he blew his money, he drank it away. I'm sure it parallels a lot of bands and musicians. He lived it up and didn't set anything aside and he died poor. That's rock 'n' roll.
