Blogger Since 2007

I started my blog in 2007.  I've been at it for over ten years now.  When I got laid off last summer, I started to look for other income streams.  I went into my blogger account and checked my account balance.  My balance was a cool $25.00.

So, over the last ten years I have made $2.50 a year off of my blog.  Contrast that with 265 working days (365-100 weekend days = 265) in a year.  So, my blog has yielded me less than a penny a day.  And there you have it.  A penny for my thoughts.

That would be true if I blogged everyday.  But I don't.  My total blog posts actually dilute my worth.  Does that mean I will give it up?  No, or course not.  Write, I must.

I guess this just proves the point.  "It ain't about the money."

But I want it to be.
