i don't particularly think bounties are a good idea, but if you look around 
you'll notice that some of the core developers are paid to work on KDE, and 
that paid for time has helped a lot. then there's the issue of how things 
like aKademy get funded; those events can easily be 6 figure investments. 
money is not inherently evil. in fact, it can allow tallented people to spend 
more time on KDE.

then again, not all money is worth it either.
