Hey, if you can afford to do it for free, by all means go for it, man. To my way of thinking, why do for free what someone will pay you good money for. Then again, that comes with certain conditions you may not care for.

Doing your own thing is worth something, so being able to just walk away can be a deciding factor, especially later in life.
