digit talk asks as a freelancer should you ever work for exposure only Mary congrats on being the uh by the way the first person to get two questions asked on the ask arv show and I know I'm going to see in the comments every be like you haven't even answered mine yet now you've answered Mary's second question yes she asks good questions but this question I really want to answer because I've been having a lot of Twitter conversations lately and very honestly for the basic 8 to 10 years that I've been in the tech game uh me all these wonderful people especially when you think about the tech game when I first got into it was very save the world and much more Zen it was less businessyoutube had an easier base people have to pay the bills but the fact that people don't take into account that there is strategy in doing things for exposure that then lead to bigger money in the future this is not about elitism like some people jump on Twitter and say pay the people you got to pay for the quality of work I agree but one needs to understand that money is not the only way to pay giving people an app Bat the platform the exposure is an absolute monetary way to compensate them in the way that I define monetary Listen by the way you might fully disagree with me and that's CU you've gone romantic on the issue in my PO and I respect that but I just don't know a single person that is deemed has achieved success without doing a solid percentage of things for free as a jockeying chess move to their success so if you're asking me the answer is yes if you don't do it and you only pay to play I get it and by the way it EB and flows I Now respond to many of you no I cannot speak at this event unless I get my fee because I promised my wife I will not travel without getting my fee because I've got two young kids this and that and so like it changes I you know I will not be sold by anybody that it isn't appropriate to do some spec work because I really believe in its strategy
