What’s crazy is that all that effort and skill can still be accumulated into something valuable.
Off the top of my head, they could start a YouTube channel dedicated to answering silly or crazy Quora questions/answers.
They could start a Substack accumulating the lessons they learned.
They could try developing a competitor to Quora (something very, very small for starters), since they’re familiar with the common issues the site has.
You can leverage a lot of that experience into something valuable that wasn’t immediately obvious in hindsight especially because it seems to come so effortlessly for this person. You just have to spend some time developing your business skills, knowing where to look for opportunities.
When I look back at some of the masters of their craft, it was always non-obvious connections. I’m not saying everything you do in life will be economically or even creatively valuable, but you’d be surprised at what you’d find with a little effort.
Even the art of researching and answering questions is in of itself a valuable skill that you can sell on Gumroad for $5.
Of course you’re free to move on to different project whenever you want but I figured this author should get some financial compensation for all the experience they accumulated.
That’s really the great thing about the Internet. Even the most niche fields can be valuable if you package it in the right way for others.
