That person makes $60K/year from 5hours/month but you can't imitate him. It's not really time = money. He is using some kind of personal/company brand that took years to build. There is value, but it's not in the time he is putting.

Okay. An example: Spend 10 years building knowledge and reputation on some field and become really good at it. Then give a one monthly paid talk at some conferences. That goes $5K/talk. Pretty much achievable. You can even make more, depending on the experience and value you bring.



Nope. Not even close. Anyone on here could write it in two days but they'd all dismiss it because it's too small minded.
