Main reason is the money. I'm not a programmer, so fixing bugs, update scrappers, server, etc. cost money.

I decide whether to continue on a project based on opportunity cost. Do I have ideas to try out? Do I feel optimistic they'll teach me something? Do I think the project has a chance of eventual success? When I run out of ideas I stop working on a project. Usually I'm working on something else by then.
