    ... as a new parent I must plan to father my child and support my family through work, instead of fathering my work and rely on my family supporting me.

      He was completely out of money and still left Intel? Why on earth would he do that? That message sounds like he's homeless or something :-/

        Oh well, shit.That sucks. The man does deserve to get paid though, for sure. Best wishes, hope you find a solution that puts dollars in your bank and still allows you to work on your passions.

          I guess because he wanna work only what he likes, problem is that such exclusive desires usually does not go in line with money

          People are different you know, on the other side some are ready to accept nice jobs and then to shutup for 70 years
