Seattle, for a not for profit. I wander the waterfront attempting to prevent historical scale disasters.

I also am straddler. Grew up in a retirement trailer park in Florida. My salary now puts me solidly in the professional class and I got there by access to a good education at an Academy. I could make quite a lot more independently.

If you're that desperate consider commercial sailing. It's awful to sail, but it's not prohibitively hard to get a unlicensed book.

wateroverfire posted:The part of your labor product you aren't paid is the rent you pay to the rest of your organization to help keep it operational, and for allowing you to use it to make money. There is another flow outta that. The most important flow. The part of your labor you aren't paid is the shareholders. They're very often perfectly happy to allow the organization to cease to be operational if they get paid more.

wateroverfire posted:. No since the transition from stakeholder to shareholder it's not just the norm but the fiduciary duty.

It's also why buybacks (to raise share price) and dividends happened instead of raised wages with the tax cut.

wateroverfire posted:I'm not following this. Could you please explain what you mean? There are private equity firms and they've been around since the eighties that valuate companies to basically determine if the company's shares are worth more or less than the liquidated company. If that's the case they proceed in a couple of ways: They might buy and liquidate the company. Eg. Larry the Liquidator style. They might borrow against the company they are purchasing to extract money from it and then burden it with debt to fail at a later time after its been sold. Eg. The Mitt Romney They might pressure the business to raise the share price (by buybacks and dividends) at the expense of operations and employees. More over the current understanding of fiduciary duty to the shareholders is that this is thier fiduciary duty to do these things.

In many Florida counties they've chased of the people who pushed for those programs and / or wrote the grants for them.

Not for profits have to have a mission. They can also make alot of money and operate like a business. But they have to do something with the money, in service of the mission or to pay the employees. The one I work for redistributes the profit at the end of the year as a bonus (after it over funds the pension) to the employees. It's pretty great.
