Gee R1ch, since I retired I do free photography. Weddings, Senior Portraits, Church stuff, and anything else at all that someone wants photographed. I pay my own expenses and won't accept any form of payment. I retired when I was 60 and it's my way of giving back to the community.
What else am I to do with a full studio set up and lots of free time? Be bored, or do worthwhile stuff for others?
I have a John Deere Gator that I drove to a church that was spreading mulch and spent a grueling afternoon in the heat shoveling and raking and moving stuff around. I didn't charge for that either. Helped someone else move dirt around. I didn't charge for that either.
I hope that one day you will experience the joy of simply doing things for others, and for others to enjoy, without feeling like you need to receive money in return.
As good as or better than Surfer Magazine!
