I think you're confusing ABP with SexKey. SexKey has been an amazing sponsor for me over the years ... the Porsche, the house, the boat, etc, etc ... all credit is due SexKey on those.

However, I did buy a number of things "expecting" a payment from Autoblogger ... unfortunately, that money was stolen. I don't want to open up that can of worms .. it's water under the bridge, and if someone's life is so hollow that they need to worry about that, I only pity them.

You can't have your cake and eat it, too...
My pay rates for contract work help me to keep the number of clients I work with to a minimum. I've been fortunate enough not to have a problem commanding reasonable rates for work produced. I'm open to any ideas that help me achieve the goal I stated above: I want to set the industry on fire with the "next" thing. I enjoy innovating and seeing people use the things I develop. Doing contract work on things many people never see (backend systems, algorithm work, strategic planning, etc) pays well, but doesn't translate into working on that "next big thing," unfortunately. I hope that makes sense.
