Threes Avenues of the story of price, along with should you pay to work for free?

| Another dream. |
This has come from Seth Godin's This is Marketing. Along with his thoughts on free which I'll keep insisting others to read it. With my thoughts.
- Free Idea's that Spread
Things that aren't tethered with a price that will push through the pathways of culture. Dealing with ideas that are both paradoxically both priceless and worthless. For example, The Mona Lisa is priceless due to the owner being dead with no royalties, but it's still worth it's salt.
Memes/Jokes, Fan Art are all obvious examples of all those other things that help spread ideas, but not necessarily in that format.
"The problem is not piracy, it's obscurity" Tim O Rielly has put it so eloquently in this field. Ideas that spread, win.
Awareness, permission, and trust are the things those excel at.
- Expensive expressions of those ideas that are worth the price
To handle scarcity, tension, and enrolment. This is where the price will come in.
Enough to keep playing the game, and to do what one loves.
The third way is not one who will put all their chips in.
- Getting picked by a big publisher/celebrity; a gatekeeper
This is work that one may pay to get the opportunity, Like Oprah Winfrey picking somebody for her book club to become a hit. Its effect will help spread those ideas and then some. This really ain't in any freelancer or influencers favour mathematically speaking. It could happen, yet no.
This is Ellen Picking a fitness influencer to be published in her mega-show, giving him a car in the process, with the revealing over hundreds and thousands. Work on the short head of distribution.
I wish the obesetobeast (John David) the best, along with his channel on twitch. He did not stare a gift horse in the mouth. Yet, do you want to rely on such wild circumstances? You have to pick yourself with cable television going away.
Look at the contract, so you don't sign away one's copyright. Best know the legalese and taxonomy of law.
It requires a gatekeeper with an immense amount of power for the creator to leverage. Yet the internet opens up. Cable television is being replaced.
The publicity is expressing a point of view, probably to annoy the 99.9% who don't get picked. The opportunity is distinct, though, valuable exposure that glimmers on a oasis.
I'd still recommend self-publishing.
So that's it, three opportunities.
