Let’s cut to the chase. I’m beyond fed up with the relentless barrage of half-baked, copy-paste fantasies about instant wealth and effortless side hustles flooding platforms like Medium. You’ve seen them, the ones promising overnight riches and a life of excreting rainbows and unicorns. They tout “real evidence” from their own manipulated stats, but let’s be brutally honest — it’s a well-orchestrated hustle.
Here’s the uncomfortable truth they’re not telling you: their primary profit comes from your naivety. Yes, you heard that right. It’s a hard pill to swallow, but these hustlers thrive on gullibility, tweaking facts with AI to paint a skewed version of reality that serves their interests, not yours.
These platforms, including Medium, are in a relentless pursuit of traffic. More clicks mean more money and visibility for them, not necessarily for you. As a seasoned professional with double Bachelor’s degrees in International Marketing & Sales and International Business Communications, and a serial entrepreneur with years of marketing expertise, I’m here to call out the BS.
We’re diving deep into the world of side hustles, stripping away the layers of deception and manipulation. It’s time to debunk these myths with a dose of hard, unvarnished reality. Let’s embark on this journey, not with rose-tinted glasses, but with a clear-eyed view of what it really takes to succeed in the world of online entrepreneurship. Buckle up; it’s going to be a brutally honest ride.
