Only when your goal is making money and not making apps to further humanity

Making money allows you to invest. If you can't make money, the scope of what is possible is restricted to "what one guy can make as a hobby".

Not all problems are workable within that constraint.

For most people, money is a tool and not a goal.

Can you share some examples of how you've furthered humanity while living for free?

Can't you do both? Why should people be expected to work for free?

I thought the idea was that you were allowed to make money by furthering humanity?

I've spent a lot of time on my app and I still had to pay people to help do the app.

Until the UBI arrives I still have to work for money.

Isn't that implied if you charge money for your app?
