You don't want to approach that territory.

That's right, I don't, but to be fair there are people who make releases and are active in freelance BGM/VGM work. I expect they're too busy with projects to read the forum, let alone answer a thread like this so I'll just emphasize, they work hard. Anything worth having in life is far from guaranteed and not easy or quick to achieve. That's all I can say without being a hypocrite or patronizing.

Eh.. I make enough to support my horrific cigarette/diet coke addiction. Freelance sound stuff though like others are saying.

EDIT: Someone should become a millionaire off of making chiptune ringtones. That would be so sketchy and hilarious. Someone please do it...

Through my chip career, I've lost $40. You should definitely be jealous.

I get paid in bitches. My fee for playing a show is 35 bitches.

If you book me and Kool Skull you must pay us a combined total of 70 bitches.

If we actually made money do you think the forums would be less cynical?  This is fucking sad; and by sad I mean funny.

I used to make a lot of money doing this, but the problem is that I could only ever get paid in BitCoin.
