I took your juxtaposition of the money amounts of the grants given to the people you listed with

when I am able to raise a fraction of that from the good will of the Perl community

as a complaint that you don't get as much money as they do.

But I've seen that you have applied for TPF grants, in addition to your kickstarter efforts. Your applications, if granted, bring you into batting range of the numbers you already cited so the point is moot of how the other people are able to raise such amounts and you aren't.
