Maybe he would be more willing to use a different payment model (not necessarily the "voluntary" model, if he was going to get smaller payments, but get them for the rest of his life (and his children, and his grandchildren....)
I'm being a little facetions there, but the fact is that working as an author already has a completely different model than being a software engineer.
