What I made my first FULL YEAR writing online (every month earnings)

Nov 18, 2023

I’ve been on the Medium platform for more than a year now, and it has definitely been a roller-coaster ride.

I mean that in the best possible way.

Although my earnings whipsawed around a lot, I have no regrets: the site changed my life for the better.

It turned my finances around and proved to me that you can actually make big money blogging online.

I figured it would be a good time to walk through my earnings journey over my first year to give my followers a picture of the amount of work you need to do, the variance you can expect, and how much you can actually earn writing on this site (and yes, it is possible to earn thousands of dollars per month).

I wrote a 2,000-word piece about it here, but I know some of you prefer to hear from me on video — so I filmed the one below for you. I hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for watching! If you enjoyed this video, I have 50 more like it over at my YouTube channel!

Publish Every Day project update: Day 20

I’m doing an experiment to see if I can make enough money to retire from commuter life within a year by publishing every single day on different platforms and investing my earnings into passive income vehicles.

How much I need to retire: $250 CAD per day

What I earned on Day 18: $42.27 (writing) + $0.85 (YouTube) + $0.02 (dividends) = $43.14 total
