Is earning money detrimental to creativity?
On one hand - to really reach full potential, an artist needs freedom. If art is paid for, the one holding the purse strings has a right to interfere. (Hollywood ululation : "He said he'll give us the money, but he wants his mistress in the lead role). It is impossible to work with that kind of interferance.
But then again - so much crap is created under the excuse of artistic freedom.
The other aspect is that money requires sense, and creatitivity requires sensibility. Blessed is the artist who is good at both. Shakespeare?
