Another myth.  I get paid for "selling" free stuff.  I have paid FOSS 
devs for custom work.  We all have to keep our skills up no matter what 
OS.  And I work the forums to hone my skills, make contacts, and 
generate goodwill capital at the projects key to my business.

But, it gets old saying it over and over.
