I guess not many. In general, people don't want to work hard without money or with very low playment. I see from recent topics, you think a lot about computer chess as a living job. Why don't you start your own business in chess now when you are really interested in it? Surely it is hard but as interesting as chess programming problems. I see that you have high abilities to invent some new ways to earn money and to be successful. After starting, you will stop worrying about other problems :) >It may mean that we are going to have more chess programmers than not >programmers who are interested in chess programs and chess programmers may earn >more money from helping other chess programmers. > >Uri
