Revenue History and Career Evolution of a Solo Founder ======================================================  ### @levelsio
@levelsio
Kinda, in 2014 I made $5K/mo with Nomad List, 2015 was $10K/mo with Remote OK added
Before that 2008-2013, I was making anywhere from $2K to $8K/mo with my YouTube channel
And then before 2008 I was making maybe $500 - $1K/mo with my AdSense blogs
And then around 2003 I was DJ'ing so I'd make $50 to $300 per hour to DJ, but then sometimes BBC Radio 1 would play the music I produced (PandaDNB) which would give me a royalty check of like $1000 for 6 mins!!!
