Dead Broke and Blogging for a Dollar

You started a blog and can claim decent traffic, but you're still not making John Chow cash, right? Many of you reading this have not made a dime blogging and are half way through your savings. Many of you will only dream of making that kind of money, especially if your only focus is a monetized blog. Yet, thousands of sites lead you to believe its easy and riches await you. I'm not trying to burst your bubble, but don't place all your eggs in a basket and hope for the best. Diversify. Try various ideas. I did and I am known for turning nothing into a money making machine. I don't focus all my efforts on web-based income, but I still work strictly from home and my income is just over $100,000. I read a blog yesterday that told how much the author had made that month. Now keep in mind, he doesn't work. He made under $100. Not sure how long he can keep that up, but when is the turning point? When do you decide that you need more that $100.?

I started off with dreams of working at home instead of making my boss rich, but I was not an overnight success. It took a lot of research, trying different home-based schemes before I pinpointed a few businesses that could generate income. My numbers fluctuate month to month, but my annual income has steadily reached $100,000 for the past 2 years. Am I satisfied yet? Nope. I still come up with new ideas in hopes of reaching my million within the next 3 years. This year, I estimate I will increase my income 1.5 times. So its not strictly about blogging, but finding ways to generate dollars from home.
