This is incoherent — the MIT license does not limit licensees to 
non-commercial use.   Effecitively, you are trying to use MIT license + an 
additional restriction (or minus some permissions), but written in a very 
confusing way.  You are basically saying: "you can do anything with this 
code [MIT license], except that you can't."

The general advice from most sources is: don't write your own license; the 
odds are high that you will mess up and say something whose effects are not 
what you intend.
