Posturing, and ignoring the many advanced amateur photographers who
consistently get good photographs, for their own use or for family and
friends.

Any amateur who is good, will get offered money for taking pictures, you don't even need to look for it. They become a pro when they take the first job. If you haven't been offered money as an amatuer, then you are probably not very good.


Only if he asks for money.
