You do need money to make a good demo; you do need a bit of financial support.

I need nothing from my companion. No money, no financial security, no emotional support, nothing. All I want is the freedom to be myself.

I've never seen such great support as you see from the folks in Texas. They really put their money where their mouth is.

Regardless of your support, you need to make work.

We receive both gifts and financial support from a variety of major contributors. With the money we go out and buy the gifts. If we have gifts left over we give them to needy families.

What's good for the financial industry probably isn't good for you.
