I would feel the same way if it were bartering. My problem with selling isn’t ethical, it’s existential. I have a nihilistic streak in me — I agree that I’m providing value, but I’m not convinced that value itself has value.

I’m going to write a post later called “Selling for existentialists” or something along those lines. I actually think my nihilistic tendencies can be an advantage here, but my mental context has to shift a little first.
