Very relatable sentiment Brian Rowe but I’m so glad that it did happen to you! You are one of the few who stuck with Medium through a long period of little or no earnings. I remember reading your early earnings articles and I bet you would have thought I was crazy if I predicted you’d have a $1700+ month! Congrats! Similarly, I think there are even bigger “numbers” ahead for you over the next year, but unlike some writers who still find a way to complain about high earnings, you embrace yours with gratitude. It makes me happy to see another writer succeed like that and is a great example for new writers.
