Well since you chopped up my article, let me state my point again: people
shouldn't expect to get rich writing II apps these days. Anyone strictly
looking to get rich off it need not bother trying it. Lots of companies
quit making II products when it no longer was profitable. So you should like
what you're doing, not be trying to make money, if you're gonna do it. If
that's the case, you're not worried about getting more buck for your time
elsewhere.
This is just semantics, but you're still out no money starting such a product
if you have the tools already and can get the needed info for free.
