In 1990, Stallman was awarded a $240,000 fellowship by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation. As with the MacArthur award, Stallman will invest the Takeda award to pay his future living expenses, so that he can work full time promoting software freedom and coordinating the GNU project. Stallman receives no salary nor travel expenses from the FSF and assumes a modest living style to facilitate his continued work championing the cause of free software.
