Agreed.

And I'm willing to put more time in if the job pays more than $15/hour.  A 
high paying job will make me want to write good code, because I'm not 
thinking or stressing about how I'm going to pay my rent.

In any case, if anyone wants to hire me for part time coding, I will also 
work on the side :)
