    The 0.1% who actually hit it big. Let’s not include survivorship bias here :)

      You don’t go into indie to hit big though. You do it because it’s your passion, just like any other creative out there.

        You can’t pay rent or for food with passion. Indie as in making it your job is brutal.

        Indie as a hobby while having a day job can be peachy (I’m doing it myself).
