I think its a trap the modern world sets for passionate talented people.
There is an automatic urge to comodify everything.
So, if you have a special talent or skill or passion, well, thats value. Best take adavantage of it!
Go get some schooling to certify it, and get a resume.
Before you know it, you absolutely hate the thing youre good and and loved.
I learned that lesson in another field of art, so when I learned to love sound design later, it was pretty easy for me to see I should keep it for myself...
One, because it doesnt even pay as well as the skill I had already sold earlier, and two, because Im not nearly as good at it. :hihi:

Well, it seems to work for some people (that are not me).
How somebody can have a passion for investment banking (and turn that into a job) is beyond me. :o

After a closer inspection I think it's actually 0.03€ as they messed up the coma, but still counts.
I got a $14 royalty check last year!

...and it only cost $40 in DistroKid fees and $50 for the extra tax prep costs. And that's why I'm only releasing on Bandcamp now.
