Well, I'm aware of the risk. But at least it's better than suffer alone right?
it's not just risks, being an indie developer means already not making a lot of money, if you then develop niche games like porn games it's really difficult to make even just enough money to live of it, to hire just 1 person full time already means to earn at least twice as much as you need for you alone
of course it's much easier to hire someone part time for only a few hours a week or to higher someone and pay them per job done but both options are still very expensive
