Over the years I've accumulated many fans from different walks of life. From kids to adults, to heterosexual and cis to transgender, homosexual, bi and other members of LGBTQ+ (Forgive me if that title sounds inaccurate, no disrespect to any I've left behind on it, because the title constantly updates and I hope to every God and Goddess of every religion the P they put in there stands for Pansexual. Don't be fooled by NAMBLA's bullshit.) Basically long story short I gained a lot of fans from different ages, jobs, sexes, religions etc. Yet I never once asked about them indiviudally, because I value their privacy and right to keep their personal and sometimes professional lives a secret. Not once have I asked what they did for money and never once asked them personally to do anything other than consider buying my work.

Granted I didn't really help matters by calling out some of my fans for merely paying eye and ear service to my work. (Like Lip service but in terms of music and art.) However, while I try my best to offer something new to the table I've only managed to gain success financially through one dedicated fan years before I went here and even said fan has their limits.

Now, just to give another glance of my personal life I've done every thing I can to try to have some financial gain. Which while some people don't see the big deal about, I feel I have to explain.

On top of my own survival which I've had covered even before I got into this, due to certain benefits my condition qualified for, I've done a lot to try to get extra cash be it for leisure or as a means to improve my work. Such as maintaining the equipment necessary to make it let alone improve it. The way I've done this save for said benefit, which is really just used for the bare essentials, such as food and shelter, was trying and doing many things, from working odd jobs, to trying any trending money making scheme that was available after seeing proof that it works that is. And yes that includes making my NFTs. Now before some of you chew me out over this, telling me I ruin the environment for being part of that, bare in mind, on top of seeing how much one gained through personal experience through a relative of mine, I thought it was a good idea as a means of expanding on the brand. I didn't expect anyone to do anything less than either promote it and for the millionth time I apologize for offending any fans against this shit. However, I think it's grossly hypocritical to call me out on the means I try to make financial gain, when at least some of of you have not only done the same, but kept your mouths shut over it out of fear of being ridiculed like I have been over this. But I'm past that. Main point is, I've basically tried everything in my power to gain more than just survival money. And everything I had planned should I have succeeded would have at least caused a dent in an effort to reverse the damages done to the world I may have allegedly contributed to it. Even going so far as playing ad based casino games, that make it very difficult, not just for financial gain, but also prize. Even if it was prizes that I wanted to keep, I mostly tried winning them so I could sell them for at least a little less than market value.

Long story short I've tried everything I can, regarding every attempt at making financial success over the CIEIR Brand.

Now I know a lot of you, have had mixed feelings about me as a person and as a musician. I can be very antagonistic when I feel I've been pushed over something. So I'd understand if maybe you fear contributing to a guy like me, would give me more power over my part of the world as a result of said gain. I also understand that most people, wouldn't buy my work, because it's free to download here. I especially understand, because aside from most of you being kids, the adults that follow me, also can't contribute due to their own responsibilities both in their personal and professional lives. I don't like it, but I understand and respect that. The only gripe I have being that my music online is so cheap that it comes across as kind of assholish, that no one would spare at least $1. All that I can understand and forgive. But I keep getting the feeling, mainly due to the fact that many of you have computers and smartphones, that you at least have some financial gain I'm not aware of.

Now with kids that's easy. Their parents provide them with the tech they need to do this stuff. As well as the occasional allowance. With adults, they managed to get certain jobs that allow them to survive and use sites like this as more or less of a hobby. So naturally even after they managed to get their bills, debts and what not in order, they only have few to spend for their leisures. However I refuse to believe that 169 people that follow me can stay on this site long enough without some kind of finance running the work they make. Be it equipment for their music, art, games and movies. Myself, I was lucky enough to be given a computer needed for this stuff to work and the only thing I had to do at the time was replace said computer. Even finding cheap deals on them since I use outdated stuff anyway.

So my weird question of financial gain is this. What is your secret, so I can use it to better my own life?
