While he might be correct by saying he made it "with this blog," that entirely misses the point.
- jwesley 18y agoThe more appropriate parallel would be "I made $2 million with a book".
- wmf 18y agoThe point I got from this post was that you shouldn't expect to make money from a blog itself. Blogging can be a form of marketing for your real business, but if your business is "pure-play" blogging you are probably in trouble.
- jerf 18y agoSince that is his point, I daresay you missed it. "Blogs don't make money. But people with blogs can."
- jrockway 18y agoHe probably would have made as much money even if he didn't blog about himself.
