The real truth of making big money writing online (they’re lying)
Earlier this week, I published my 300th post on this site.
I think it’s reason to celebrate, but it also serves as a warning to anyone who dreams of making big money writing online.
You see, there’s an entire industry operated by snake oil salesmen and built on the idea of “make EASY money online FAST”.
And it’s sickening, to be honest.
It’s starting to bother me more and more every day.
The reason it disgusts me so is that it gives sometimes desperate people false hope that they’ll be able to turn their lives around with little or no effort and in no time flat.
Folks, the world they’re selling to you simply doesn’t exist.
Here’s the truth.
A wonderful life
This piece isn’t meant to discourage you from trying to make some side money online or even from pursuing it as a full-time job.
Heck, that’s what I’m trying to do.
To me, getting up every day to work on a business I own and love— as opposed to commuting to an office for an hour each way and answering to a boss — would be a dream life.
