I’m an artist, I made something ten years ago that has continued to sell better than anything else I’ve done. It is nowhere near Star Wars big but it is the creative equivalent of a “lifestyle business”. This is, indeed, a genuine concern of mine that affects my own finances.

Well the argument is that you can enjoy the financial benefit of your creation for only twenty years, and while I understand why you would disagree, I still think that is fair.

I suppose I still think you're an entitled asshole, then, unless you are also working hard to make a world where everyone doesn't have to come up with money for rent and groceries on a constant basis. Fair enough.
And do you think you should be able to coast off this forever?
I'm presuming it's your tarot card deck? (That doesn't look like you've even printed since 2018?)

I doubt this body has more than about sixty years in it at best, but I would certainly like to be able to continue to make money off of it while I'm still alive. Especially if my body starts to fall apart to the point where I can no longer make new work.
