Something to add to the people saying they were either rich or it was their job: these people were actually geniuses. If they had to work 14 hours a day they would still have spent time musing and pondering and possibly creating. Would they have come up with the vast majority of their works or been able to even approach the skill they obtained? Absolutely not. Those were only possible through intense dedication and practice, but the indication that anyone with enough time can do what they did is misleading. Newton with 30 minutes a day will still do more than I will with that same amount of time.
