Being broke is better than being corporate.
Besides, I've proven to myself that I can make my money last a long time and live frugally if I have to. I've proven I can invest as well if I have to. I've proven that I can make money even when I had worse skills and that I'm making more and more so even if AI does become a problem, I'm vastly outpacing the development of AI (which, in my own experience having tried it before it became popular, has progressed at a sluggish pace anyway)

Even if the exponential growth of gamedev continues, my competitors will be years behind me in skill.
