I'm still confused why anyone would think of this "industry" as a viable profession. At the prices mentioned in the recent threads, it's clearly not except perhaps for a few exceptional folks who prove the rule (and probably live in very inexpensive locations).
A few tens of thousands of US dollars per year—if that? Are you kidding me? We're talking about values that are below the poverty line.
So, my question is: who cares? Why are we even talking about this? It seems like this is just hobbyist work and hobbyist income, not anything you'd build a life and career around.
