As you can imagine, being a Forbes writing contributor on a hobby does not generate a living wage but allows him to earn some money in a field -- journalism -- he has spent his entire career in. I'm grateful that David has drawn some incremental attention to the hobby. It benefits most of us. As to whether or not he is supplementing his non-livable wage income with PWCC payments, as this video insinuates, there is zero evidence of that -- 45% of his articles being related to PWCC says very little. Even in the case that it is true, I personally could give a shiit. It's trivial in the scheme of things. It's David's employers decision to judge the content of his articles and their reception by his audience. Targeting him as a potential bad guy is off base and feels like a misguided extension of a legitimate huge problem that needs to be addressed in the hobby.

Let's focus on the big institutions and the really bad actors, not unfounded insinuations about decent individuals challenged to get by in life that are well liked and respected by the hobbyists who know them. I hope this thread dies soon before it goes off the rails.

He needs to learn that Brent mastro is crooked. It's not too difficult. He's a shill just like Brent Mastro....Mr Shill.
