Reading this made me check my personal privilege. I realized that that's exactly why I'm pursuing that kind of arrangement. It is absolutely at the top of the pile in terms of technical and artistic creative endeavors, which you can pursue, which also can make money. If played right, you really do get the best of every world. Tenure allows you to be exactly this crazy. The position gives you credibility to investors and the community at large. You'll have access to smart people all around you, who support what you do and are happy to collaborate.
