Well, some 1000 years from now, they will dig out your metal prints from the bottom of Santa Cruz Strait (between the island of California and continental Texas), and one of them will be sold for $1M - to a kid curious in ancient history who would forgo his e-Donald's sandwich and use that day's lunch money on this curiosity.

So don't lose that dream, and keep on shooting. Maybe the new Pentax body coming or a lens on eBay will finally do the trick for you. ;-)
Somehow I doubt that any camera will be enough so that one of my photos sells for a million bucks 35 years after I die. I can barely sell them 45 years after I started photographing.
