Mick and team are working to use tech to make the world better, one person or project at a time. You may not get paid in money, but you might create a prosthetic hand for a child in Africa who lost his hand in a war zone. Or you might create a cost-efficient treadmill so that sick children can recover and learn to walk. Oh, wait, Mick already did that. You'll have to work on another project, then.
