If you get into anything just for the money, you will not make it. And it by chance you do make it, you will not be happy.
I give away a lot of time and info for free (as I know MBS, ASB and BD do). I have actually told prospects that I have an article written that covers the work they want me to do. They can follow the article and if they have any questions or problems, give me a call. You know what? I am not having to worry about money. :) BTW, if you know some Linux/Unix stuff AND you are a packet-head type person, you should get into the Citrix NetScaler. As busy as us XenApp and XenDesktop people are, my NetScaler friends are buried in work and can't keep up. I know three CTPs whose businesses are BEGGING for NetScaler people. And most NetScaler work can be done remotely.
