Show me the money Christian Graus12-Jan-03 22:41 Christian Graus 12-Jan-03 22:41  It's not that I'm ONLY in it for the money, but it's the way of showing appreciation that hurts the most, and so it's the one that means the most as well. Christian No offense, but I don't really want to encourage the creation of another VB developer. - Larry Antram 22 Oct 2002 C# will attract all comers, where VB is for IT Journalists and managers - Michael P Butler 05-12-2002 Again, you can screw up a C/C++ program just as easily as a VB program. OK, maybe not as easily, but it's certainly doable. - Jamie Nordmeyer - 15-Nov-2002 Cash? Come on! SimonS12-Jan-03 20:29 SimonS 12-Jan-03 20:29  OK, OK, we need to pay the bills, but surely this isn't the goal that everyone strives for.

Gavin Greig12-Jan-03 22:38 Gavin Greig 12-Jan-03 22:38  I took "inspires" in this context to mean "What makes me most want to continue doing this?". I swithered a bit between cash and seeing people use the product, and came down on cash because that's the most sincere appreciation a business can offer. For a business to pay me money, particularly if it's money not in my basic contract, I must have done something right, and it's been recognised by other people. I get personal satisfaction out of seeing the product used, but the question was "What reward do you most appreciate?". Having the product used doesn't necesarily equate to any appreciation of my work, so business putting its hand in its pocket is the winner. Gavin Greig "Haw, you're no deid," girned Charon.
