Becoming a Millionaire with Side Hustles (March 2025)

March 31, 2025 - Many of you who have followed this series know that I became ill in July 2023 and haven’t been able to work regularly. Because of this, I’ve chosen to use the earnings from this series to cover medical expenses and continue investing. I do own another portfolio worth about $1.7 million, but its dividends and interest remain reinvested every month on that portfolio.

This past month, I spent minimal time on WFH platforms. Instead, I focused on establishing fresh affiliate revenue sources solely for this series, putting in around four hours a day. That effort pushed my affiliate income past the $1,000 mark. I relied heavily on Reddit and Quora for promotion, which worked better than I’d anticipated.

Another income stream that saw a substantial boost was my AdSense revenue. This was partly thanks to a website redesign and the introduction of engaging games that kept visitors on the site longer.

I also published more low-content books and released my first novel via Amazon KDP. Sales have been strong, and readers seem to appreciate how I adapted everyday Japanese life into an English-language novel.
