I get $1.75 from each copy sold, so "no", I am not getting rich on this (although when I was jobless about a year ago, each dollar helped). I am actually deriving "compensation" by reading feedback from people who say that they find my work useful. Too often "free" is not appreciated as much as something that you have paid for (at least this is what I have noticed with myself). Human psychology, I guess. That's why pirating is not such a huge issue as it is often described.

I also find unconvincing the argument that I somehow prevent people from "reading God's Word" by charging for it because not everybody can afford it. If somebody can afford a Kindle, then $5 is not an obstacle, right?
