Of course, he must've gotten a sense of accomplishment from this.

When I contribute to an open source project I get the same feeling too. I can even brag about it during interviews. But, It's not why I do it. I learnt a lot from open source projects and I am just paying it forward. What I got from these projects is more than what I am able to contribute to.

But, Life is not a zero-sum game. We don't have to do things in exact proportions. That would make it a business transaction. Bob Ross definitely gave a lot to his viewers. In my eyes, that makes him a hero.
