On a more serious note: no. I would guess about 90% of people on a PC or Mac would not have the patience or perseverance to last more than a month. There's a lot of reading involved, and learning things like refraction values, reflection properties, normal mapping, differences in system gamma settings, color mapping, etc., and then you can apply the artistic techniques. Dedication is the primary ingredient, because, without it, you can't anywhere.

A good final render is a tedious journey.

(BTW, I sing a lot... but it does frighten dogs and small children...)
