Three Jobs I Have Done For Free

I suspect to best answer that question it’s most appropriate to look at what I do now for free and base my answers on that. First of all I do not ever intend to make money with this blog. Latter Day Sinner is my public witness and it is not for sale. I have linked these writings to a few other ways that are intended to make money but I do this for free and wish to keep it that way. The second thing that I do on a regular basis which I pursue almost entirely for free is my digital art. I would like to make a living at that and someday I might. But as of yet I am doing my art for other more lofty reasons. I also aspire to be a social media influencer. If I was sure my advocacy (and arguments) online were making a difference in the world the money that would likely come with that would be a secondary motivation at best. I don’t have tens of thousands of people hanging on my every word nor do I make money at it, so again I already do that for free. I will give an honorable mention to caregiving for my disabled children. I did that without direct compensation most of their lives. It is mostly a good thing that I am reimbursed for my time, but it still feels a little funky to get paid to watch my own kids. And of course I’m awesome for free!
