I Made $460,000 on Medium: It Was a Mistake
Here’s why…
I made $460,000 writing on Medium.
Looking back though, it was a mistake.
It’s a mistake I see most writers and business owners making.
You’re probably making it right now…
Don’t get me wrong.
Making this mistake doesn’t mean you won’t make money. You will. Just not as much as you could have.
So how could making nearly half a million dollars be a mistake?
I’ll explain…
I started writing on Medium in 2015…ancient times.
This was before they had a program to pay writers.
In 2017, they launched the program and I quickly became a top earner. I made six figures per year for multiple years.
Here’s the mistake I made:
I got so addicted to royalties that I failed to build an actual business.
Yes, I made $10–20K per month…
But I was writing 30–40 articles per month.
$300 an article ain’t bad…
But what if you could make $6,000 from writing a blog post that takes two minutes?
