Some people are nice to them and give them money for the gracious work they made for everyone ... Open source means free to use but sometimes it doesn't hurt to be thankful even if you're not asked to.

Believe it or not, that guy actually earned quite a reasonable amount of money. Though it may seem like he did not, he actually did.

It's because there are nice people in the world. Not everyone's expecting monetary gains from their contributions.
