This is my first post and I apologize that it is related to money, but after reading
several posts on licensing, self-publishing and showing games to big time publishers
I can not help but wonder how much money do game designers make on games.
The board game industry seems to be a pretty tight market and then game specifics
will tighten that market even more.
Are their non "spiel des jahres" designers that make a living from board games?
What kind of a living is it?
Thanks

Thank you so much for your comments.
That is enlightening to understand that most of these games at my local board shop are designed by guys that are just trying to make a really fun game that people will enjoy.
It adds another dimension to the games and makes reading the rule books a little more enjoyable as well.
If any one else has stories about other designers I would love to hear them.
Thanks,
Jeremy
