@ -31,4 +31,9 @@ Considering all things mentioned above, here are some concrete things of making
- **selling on proprietary sites** (CONTROVERSIAL): This may not be acceptable by everyone, but it can be possible to create a free work and then distribute it under [free](free_software.md) conditions in some places and simultaneously sell this item in places distributing [proprietary](proprietary.md) assets. E.g. one may create a 3D model and put it under a free license on [opengameart](oga.md) while also selling it in 3D models stores like TurboSquid -- this will make the model available for everyone as free but will make people who don't bother to search the free sites pay for it. This may potentially bring much more money than the other methods as the proprietary stores have big traffic and people there are specifically willing to spend money. However, this supports the [intellectual property](intellectual_property.md) business. **Important note**: read the terms&condition of the proprietary site, it may for example be illegal for you to share your assets elsewhere if the proprietary site makes you *sign* an exclusive deal for them. {I am actually guilty of this, been selling some small 3D models on TurboSquid. It provides a kind of stable mini-income of about $3/month. ~drummyfish}
- **[non-profit](non_profit.md)**: It is possible to run a non-profit organization that creates [software](software.md) (or hardware or whatever) for public benefit -- details differ by each country but a non-profit may receive funding from the state and be exempted from taxes. Check out [EU](eu.md) grants etc. This method may however require a lot of effort (as running an organization is much more difficult than setting a donation website) and may potentially be limiting in some ways (governments may have condition for the funding etc.).
- **abuse state and your employer**: You may at least temporarily avoid [work](work.md) by e.g. registering as unemployed and living on welfare (possibly combined with your saved money), getting some kind of disability pension (pretend you're autist or something) or by getting employed somewhere and becoming "sick" (give something to your doctor so he gives you a sick paper -- if you're a [woman](woman.md) you may for example suck his dick). Do this every few months.
