We are living in an exciting time. While everybody thinks that only the hackers and tech-savvy Silicon Valley entrepreneurs control the scene, the tide is slowly shifting. The same thing that once happened with tech is now happening with content.

If you think about it, content and tech work by the same rules:

  1. They require a significant investment upfront: either in the form of time or money.
  2. They are easy to scale — an additional ‘user’ or ‘reader’ costs $0 to maintain.

If I am honest, I used to think of myself as inferior because I didn’t know how to code.

But content and tech work by the same rules. They both give you leverage. You can write a book once and make money while you sleep, just as you would write a piece of code and have people use it all around the world.

Don’t know how to code? Write books, make videos and record podcasts.

That’s part of the reason that the ‘new rich’ are people from the media. It’s Joe Rogan, Kim Kardashian, (even Gary Vaynerchuk), and tens of thousands of other bloggers and influencers who make a living doing what they love.
