But I wonder whether thinking "How can I earn money?" gets specialization of labor as well / better than thinking "What's interesting to me?"
It might result in people trying and failing to do things that pay a lot, rather than try and succeed at things they're well-suited for.
If you know that will be a problem, I think you're smart enough to figure out that you have to do something you're interested in. If not, you're not going to come up with this as a guideline in the first place.
