how do you avoid burnout and getting taken advantage of?
kixxauth: If you are as great as you seem to be saying, you may want to try working on a member owned and managed corporation.  It's like a co-op, or an employee owned organization, but better.  You are paid in equity, which is determined by your peers. All of the profits are distributed amongst the equity holders / members every month.  If the other members think you're as great as you think you are, you'll be proportionally rewarded.We're The Fireworks Project and we are a digital corporation borne out of the Vermont Project.
