Even if it's an accident, take credit for it!
In a recent flurry of comments on Paul Strikwerda's facebook post about low-balling your voice0ver rates, I wrote the following "instant wise saying":
...just because you're doing something you love doesn't mean you have to do it just for the love of it.
(I'll resist the urge to register it as a trademark...just in case I really saw it somewhere else and just don't remember it's not original!)

I see a fortune cookie with that saying in your future.
Of course you're going to have to eat a hell of a lot of Chinese food to find it but there are worse tasks!

What's the big deal? It looks like all you did was copy that quote from the header of the VO-BB.

+1 for shameless self promotion. It's a "banner day".
