I'm interested to hear how I personally profit from PyCon - because the fact is, I don't. I spend more hours than I care to admit stealing time from work and family, busting my ass to get things done for this conference and the Python Software Foundation.

I do this as a volunteer, as those who came before me did. I don't get fat checks, or kickbacks from sponsors, or free cars or servants. I do get a lot of heartburn, a lot of email, and a lot of stress.

So not only do I find your comment confusing and insulting, I'm honestly completely baffled.
