This is beautifully written, thank you. As a creator, my money ambitions fit between “does this thing provide enough value to pay for itself” and “could this provide enough value to pay for my needs”. The drive to create the thing comes from sincere enthusiasm + excitement that simply don’t leave me alone. Shifting the thing’s purpose from the original one that filled me with enthusiasm to the purpose of simply extracting money, corrupts its original purpose. I call this corruption. it is my observation that one kind of people create, and another kind of people corrupt. Unfortunately the economic system we have accepted as normal, leans toward corruption and extraction.
