Around 200€.

If you ask me, it feels bad not being able to afford some basic stuff but then it is also super rewarding when you make some money. I am in my last year of my university degree but don't live at home, and my income comes from side projects and some programming jobs I do for others. (I don't pay for university, otherwise nothing would be viable).

germany. 29. studied physics/math, played poker for 6 years, run 3 SaaS. do consulting at 300/hour.

3 days ago ive decided to invest in real estate since thats the only market that the robots cant take away from us. the luxury living spaces of 2035 wont look significantly different from those of 2015. in terms of location.

a super conservative projection of the real estate thing will lead to acquiring property worth 500k a year, producing 100k ARR, with the option of turning it into a REIT.

^ as in after year 1, i own 1/30th of 500k and make 100k

after year 2, i own 2/30th of 500k and 1/30th of another 500k and make 200k etc.

the projection does not reinvest the ARR. if you reinvest, things move faster. thinking about the real estate game in SaaS terms sounds reasonably reasonable at the moment. i'm still talking to a lot of people in know in the business, but im going to make my first purchase this summer.

net worth today: ~350k

last year: 10k

the year before: tree fiddy?

hockeystick is about to kick in.

edit: im not saying that robots cant invest more efficiently in real estate. they clearly can, and i have my own software. but an algorithm can never purchase all the real estate that is valuable and then destroy the margins, like it would on the stock market. if you own a valuable piece of land, it doesnt lose its value because some AI is speculating on the lot next to it.

Calculate it from my blog's worth. Free" rel="nofollow">http://www.neuroscientia.com/p/free-iq-test.html">Free IQ test

You don't need to add the tag for adding links. In fact, the page it directs doesn't exist as the link thinks ">Free" is part of it.

Other than that, I see you have around 4k visits this month and you are growing steady, but calculating worth from that? This isn't that easy. Would you share your real revenue? I would be interested in knowing that info tbh.

Hey, I'm interested in the poker part. My best friends make a living with poker and I know the world of poker pretty good. How did you make the money, online/live and tournaments/cash/sit&go?

Nice stats btw, keep it like this, it looks like you have pretty much everything figured out.

How did you get from 10k to 350k in one year? Was it the SaaS products + consulting ?
