#22The only buck(s) I made on the web in 2014 was writing some Arduino code on spec for someone who was having trouble getting his head around a few concepts.
Initial code took about 1/2 hour and I charged a bit over $100. Don't remember exactly how much.
I then spent hours writing emails (on top of the documentation I supplied) explaining things as he tried to add functionality on his own :-(

#25$1,100 a month from my Udemy course: https://www.udemy.com/building-and-selling-a-niche-website-f... . Once I got it it up and did the first little bit of marketing, it's been literally no work. Maybe 30-45 min a month answering questions, but I wouldn't consider that work. :)
Wow really? Maybe I should submit one ;)

It's definitely worth it if you have the time to do it well. I know one instructor who did $140k in his first month (he did have an audience beforehand though). Feels like a 'goldrushy' time in online education right now. A lot of people don't know this.

#28Back in 2009 I put a couple drawings up on CafePress ( http://www.cafepress.com/fallinghawks ), then pretty much completely ignored the site. I just got a commission check last month. Apparently there was some falconry meet somewhere and somebody got a kick out of the shirts and bought a few.
May I ask you how to join this website and get revenue from our drawing ? tks

#29There was an article on digg.com about Google becoming a worse search engine. The article was on news.yahoo.com
Someone commented "5 dollars to someone who points out the irony in this", I replied. The guy sent me $5 via Paypal. I used the $5 to get a .com domain (special offer on GoDaddy). The domain was for my web design portfolio, and that's how I got started.
