[amibroker] Re: AmiBroker Contingency Plans

Just imagine...there's this one developer in Poland who is making a 
killing by selling his product worldwide with no one able to fire him 
or force him to do what he doesn't want to.   He works hard at it 
because he enjoys it and there's always something in that product for 
everyone to get the purchase value out of.

Life doesn't get (professionally) much better than that as a self-
employed individual...unless you have some great talent you were born 
with that is in high demand or unless you can trade the futures and 
make a 7 figure salary without having to get out of your jammies and 
take a shower...until you feel like it.
