Great advice - I've seen quite a few people say that "they came here for the money and ended up staying for the community".

The money won't be enough to get most people's fire started at least in the first three months as you mention - but the good thing is that you can practice and hone your skills, find your niche and find like-minded people whilst you build your following.

I am enjoying the journey (about 1 month in) and I'm learning a ton from your posts. Cheers!
