This comes down to almost philosophical considerations, e.g. with such 
apparently simple decisions as "is it worth risking my life for some risky 
adventure in Colombia?", while realizing that personal life by itself is 
limited in time range, personal excitement should be an essential feature of 
ones personal life, and last but not least outcomes for others might be fine, 
en passant and in the end. Which adds to any plain argument of the necessity of 
just having to make money for your living, independent of the real $ outcomes, 
which may be worse some time, or better other times. That´s the spirit which I 
believe keeps people like Mike going on strong, with some benefits for the rest 
of us...

Good job, Mike!
