But this is the classic cycle don't you see? They almost always start as "here is an app I threw together, no ads, don't be evil".
But then a lot of people like your app, and ask for a small extra feature. You support it, and then get a bit annoyed by all the features people are asking for. Then you have to update it for the latest release... then suddenly fix it when some obscure version of Android breaks on it.
Then someone offers you £60k for a small ad no-one will even see and you think.. don't you deserve a bit of credit?
Maybe you'll be the good one who doesn't take it, but the free model is generally unsustainable.
