How I Monetized My Passion
Not all passions monetize.At the moment, I'm passionate about rock climbing, travel, surfing and computer programming.  If it weren't for that 4th one, I'd be screwed.I currently run maybe the 3rd most popular Travel Blogging site out there.  It's had a good 5 years of passion poured in now, off and on, and if I were to slap ads on it today I'd pull in a buck thirtyfive a day.I also run a little service that processes the draconian logfiles that Amazon provides for its webservices and spits out pretty analytics.  It's a subject that no human being could ever be passionate about and it pays my rent.Sometimes it's better to monetize something boring that people are willing to pay for.
