This is a challenge but I'm trying. I have a long and sordid history of overworking on things that did not give back anywhere near what I put in. I'm testing the thesis that it was because of power dynamics and ownership.
I'm a year and a half into a project that I've worked on fullest time with max grit that I own completely. If it succeeds even a little I plan to build 3-5 dome houses on our rural land for indie gamedevs and artists to work on their personal projects for a year without rent. We'll only ask for a tiny percentage of revenue sharing just to try and make the thing self sustaining. A little forest moon base for dreams.
I hope by not being parasitic and actually just helping people do the thing I have been struggling to death to do, it would move the needle a few atoms towards what you're describing.
My greatest fear is that the system is so efficient that some how helping others is impossible, and I'll figure out why only when I'm dry. It's hard to imagine, but I haven't seen much help from the waterworld captains while I've been cobbling together my raft of flotsam. Maybe it's because sailing is hard and storms are kind of scary no matter how big the boat. Few grow old enough to find the time.
Feel free to email me, especially if you're among that rare resplendent type.
