My estimation is that 400 books should give me the $24,000 monthly, however I believe that with proper quality, backend, affiliate marketing and list building behind those books, 200 books under multiple pen names should be enough.
why not just write 1, really good book?
Hopefully I will manage to do it all before book business dies
fwiw the book business won't die. the low quality book business will die.
$24,000 monthly is my goal for F.U. money
It's not FU money if the income stream disappears.
Just be careful as the route you're going is the same as throwing up 400+ affiliate sites and spamming them with SEO back when it was "hot" to do so. Just because everyone else is doing it doesn't mean it's a good idea. The real money isn't made jumping into what's "hot", it's finding a great opportunity that isn't "hot" yet.
View yourself as an investment manager of your life. Right now you're jumping into a declining stock and going all in.
This doesn't mean it's "wrong", it's whatever is best for you. If that stock has unbelievable dividends and you understand the reason for those high dividends is because of the high probability of the stock going bust, and you're cool with it, then I am rooting for you. Just wanted to take a minute to share my thoughts as I feel many people picture a very different long term result than what the reality of it will be.
