I knew people who were struggling to find work, performing menial tasks online for scraps of change, and built systems for them to optimise their workflow. It still required them to put in a lot of time and effort, but I could increase their productive output by 5-50x depending on what they're doing. I did this in exchange for 20-50% of the proceeds. It was a win-win, however it ultimately helped them get back on their feet, get on top of their bills, and then have the mental capacity to look for real work again. Once they got a real job, they stopped.

Which I suppose is a good thing overall.
