Money is not only the unit of caring, it is the unit of exchange. It is not straightforward to trade money for time however (at least by the hour) so you are comprehensible. I’m sorry if I offended you.
Making money is not my comparative advantage. :) Really, though, I intern for SIAI, and when I’m not doing that I’m building skills so that I’ll be better able to work for SIAI, and when I’m not doing that I’m building skills that are related to intelligence amplification research. That is, at least for now, my comparative advantage: there’s no easy way for me to make enough money to pay someone else to do it better than I could. Volunteering at SIAI for a year gave me a lot of domain-specific knowledge.
I’m sorry if I offended you.
You didn’t offend me at all! Sorry, I didn’t mean to sound bristly.

Especially if you are in a country where that kind of thing is illegal.
