So anyone who doesn't quit their day job isn't a professional when they accept money for a service? You ARE defining professional narrowly.
I have no idea how my editor makes her living. I didn't demand to know. Editing is what she does; I pay her for it; she provides what I consider high-quality edits. That's good enough for me, and I would think it would be good enough for any indie on a tight budget.
Since that is what we were talking about, I considered the information relevant.
Descending into speculation about how she earns the bulk of her keep is none of my business.
