greedy author? (Score 0, Troll)

I'm laughing when I read this:

why can't I write a wonderful new *general* tool and make money from it? Yeah, I know, some will say "Go ahead and try, it's a free world". But you know as well as I do that if I am successful then inevitably some kid in his parents' basement will write his own Open Source version of the thing, for free.

Aren't you too greedy? If a kid with a computer can make it too, then why would YOU deserve to make a lot of money?
At least, in this quote, the author really uses the word free (in free world) with the same meaning than in free software ;)
