Not sure if it means anything, but if I met you then you'd have unlimited guest time on my spare bed, and that would include food of course.

Might not be much, but community respect and appreciation is something, it will definitely get you fed and beer'd.

Although ideally you'd want to have the money not the admiration. :\
