Freelance journalism can hardly be considered "making a living"

  Is that true? I'm genuinely curious. I really enjoyed this article. It's like "diaries of a call girl" for 50+ overqualified-but-underemployed men. Crossed with a Kevin Smith film. If there was a github-style subscribe button that would notify me of his next article I would definitely click it. No idea if my "impression" contributed to the atlantic's bottom line (and presumably his paycheck) but I guarantee you I've never helped the bottom line of SI.

    It wouldn’t be surprising if the author made $500 or less from this piece.
