And yet … the Internet is populated with blogs for which no one gets paid. Clearly there’re a lot of us imbeciles/academics/schmucks out here.

Unless you are a independently wealthy hobbyist–time and talent require a monetary exchange. If some clueless schmuck wants to do it for “free”–it is their own perogative.

I think he was being self-deprecating in saying only fools would write if it wasn’t for money. Because many of us will and do write for nothing, and most writers would do so till their last breath. He’s satirising our dedication, because as dedicated as we are, we’re very rarely compensated as we should be.

Do you agree?
