INCOME
I’ve earned my money with flying for 10 years now.
Otherwise I sold one video, a get fee for an exhibition now and then. Together 4.000€. Also photos published in magazines but no money there. Friends’ projects, that’s why one does it.
SOCIAL SECURITY? Through my job yes.
FINANCIAL SITUATION SECURE?
Yes, I find it a good middle way, gives me the chance, gives me structure, contrast. It goes in the direction of less flying, so more as part timw to have time for other things.
I don’t have a problem with selling when it happens but I don’t have the pressure to sell.
