#23I am but I don't know how long it will continue! My side project is: "How to Make an RPG" ( http://howtomakeanrpg.com/ ) which I released in June. It's a collection of code samples, art and digital book that shows the reader how to make an old-school, Japanese-style RPG. So, it's super niche! I wrote a little about my process here: https://medium.com/@DanSchuller/my-first-side-project-part-1... There was supposed to…
That's really cool. I wonder if you could make some money by doing actual in-person classes. It obviously wouldn't scale as well as a book you write once and release, but you might be able to charge a lot more for in-person education.

#24I have a project making $200/month, 100% passively (I just renew the domain every couple of years). But I think it would be so dumb to just tell what it is here. Why would you invite more competition to your niche?
For smaller SaaS companies I think this approach is best.
If you have a stable passive income, whether you rely on or not. Why post about in an arena where people have the ability to copy and undercut you easily and threaten your income.
I sometimes find posts like these slightly disingenuous.

#25http://getlivead.com and http://chattorney.com . They're different front ends to the same backend. Makes everything from aubscriptions. Not enough to live on as primary income but not shabby either. It has been a long four year road, with a couple of pivots and rewrites, 3 years of attorney's fees for patents but hugely personally rewarding and self-sufficient now.
I liked the idea of getlivead.com and went to the pricing page.
149 for what time period? Hard to sign up like that.
For most people, that is way too much for a tool that only does one niche thing. The thing is, everyone could use that one niche thing every once in a while. You should have a casuals tier with limited use/time for people who have some stuff to sell because they are moving or whatever. Bigger clients could give it a test run and upgrade if they want.

#27I started Hacker Paradise as a side project in 2014, and now we're a full-time team of 3. We organize trips around the world for developers, designers, and entrepreneurs who want to work remotely while traveling. People pay us to organize housing, accommodations, and community events wherever we go (past speakers have been CIO of Estonia in Tallin, Matz in Tokyo, etc.). Happy; to answer questions about running more o…
Any blog posts or other info about this? Sounds great and a HN front page worthy business!
Thanks! We wrote some blog posts last year, but I've been meaning to do an update on the whole project.

Yes, it's a simple purchase and then the customer has access to all the content.

Well at least, is it from ad only? or subscription?
Adsense. I experimented with Amazon Affiliates, but that made me 1/10th of the money.
