Begging on the street certainly isn't.

The dichotomy here isn't between "Be a Wi-Fi antenna" or "Be a respectable middle-class office worker"; it's "Be a Wi-Fi antenna" or "Be a homeless person without the Wi-Fi antenna income".

If you're self-employed, you're not subject to the minimum wage laws.
