You are one of the reasons why people should still believe good exists in the world.

I honestly thought you were a paid worker. You're one of the more admirable people on this continent.

It's amazing that people like you - the kind of people whom the Obamas mention in their positive speeches (please excuse the politics) - actually exist in significant numbers.

So how do you get by? 1000 hours a year is around 50% of standard work hours (40hrs/week, 52 weeks/year = 2080). Do you work a part time job outside of the volunteer stuff?

sounds like you have amazing dedication, but are your current financial means enough to get you by long term?
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

oh wow, mad respect to you Snet, that's crazy!
Same as everyone else, do you work another job? have an inheritance? got lucky and came by some money by other means (lottery etc)?
Just break the rules, and you see the truth.

It must be nice to have the time to be able to invest on not making money! I'm working 10 hours a day just to slide by between supporting my family and making college loan payments, any volunteering on top of that would significantly impact my quality of life, but I guess I'm just selfish and want to play video games and hang out with my wife during the down time

What's the rest of your life look like? How much time do you spend working and how much time do you take for yourself?
good vibes only

Just to echo what a few other people have asked, what do you do for money then?
