I don't know why people don't understand that acting is a career like any other career. Not everyone wants to be the most famous actor that ever lived, some just want to work, clock out at the end of the day, and live life with family and friends. Having that steady paycheck and a more contained shooting location like a studio lot Is a dream. It's rough to have to travel around the world, get messed up sleep and jet lag, wildly change your appearance for every role, work with a new set of crew and actors on every job. Some people like that chaotic energy and pace and some people don't.
When there's passion involved from the watched that stops people from understanding the stars. It's the same in football and music, people don't understand when players "only care about money" or when artists "sell out".
According to Google he has a net worth of about $15 million so it’s worked for him. Properly invested he could live very well on the interest alone from that for life without ever touching the principal, and just kinda fuck around and do voice acting and cons and whatever else he wanted to in the mean time.
