$1,000/month is great beer money. How much work goes into day to day operations?

One of the things to keep in mind that if something 'only' makes $1,000/month but only takes two or three days out of your time a month its "effectively" paying you $15K - $20K/month because you have those other days to do something else. People who set up linkbait pages (I'm looking at you content farms) which bring in 4x their operating cost just replicate the crap out of them.

1k/month before taxes :( If you are already doing a full time job in software dev, you are probably paying 30-40% tax already.
