yep. i'm just looking at any rewards as EXTRA at this point - not expected - just playing the game for the game's sake, enjoying the skills development & learning process along the way. if it ends up profitable in the end, GREAT. if not... well, it already is... but not touching much of that - hoping it'll work out, but planning as though not - and contributing my best to help it succeed in whatever ways I can...
