The problem is that the dude started out claiming it was a project for his own satisfaction. Then he tried to monetize later, and now wants to cash out.

Which is fine, that's the way the world works. But the number of developers that make one claim or another and then change their tune later is absurd. It isn't even about the money aspect, it's that the dude switched gears rather than making a realistic plan from the beginning.
