Five years is a really really long time in the "monetizing digital content" industry. Five years ago you could make an actual living off a semi-popular niche blog. The iPhone itself is only eight and a half years old. The idea of a "long term" revenue stream has to be evaluated in this context, irregardless of the other obvious fact which is that money today is worth a lot more than money in the future.

Chilly's Postulate Chillys Postulate Chillys' Postulate Chillies Postulate Chillie's Postulate To be fair though, mine was an actual typo. I don't correct people when they make typos, that's just rude. I correct only with the goal to educate. Irregardless is wrong, even if it will eventually be made correct by mass acceptance by americans.
