Get prepared to move on.

Motivation has to be there certainly even it is only self-interest, but it does not have to be financial. I think José would agree.

Charles,

My point is not about motivation.

But programming being very time consumming, it is very hard for people to work for free, for a long period of time, except if they don't need to earn their living anymore (retired or sponsored), and if they have a limited social life (ask your wife).

My virtual wife agrees that programming is very time consuming, but so much better than watching TV.
