If I got my side project to generate $2k/month it would no longer be my side project!

  In many places (most places), it would be hard for 2k/month be your full income.

    (?) That's higher than min wage (post taxes) in most western countries, for most small saas/web projects/apps with small operating costs that's plenty

      Not many people would be able to give up their day job for a saas that has a revenue of slightly more than minimum wage.

    I think the point is it would probably be well worth spending more time on. Either tapering off employed work, or being underpaid/using savings for a little bit while you push to increase it. At least, that was my reaction too, and it seems echoed by many of the people sharing their ('no longer a side') projects.

      Your "friendly suggestion" is extremely rude.

        Stating that 2k/month is not enough income for "most places" is ridiculous and rude in a way too. Was an unnecessary comment.

          No offense intended. I was merely pointing out that it’s not much for many places and many would not be able to leave a full-time job for that. Keep in mind that this is approximately the poverty line for the United States so it might be hard for most people to leave a full-time gig for that. It’s a nice start though!
