I Just Became a FoM

Summary

A Medium member shares their experience of becoming a Friend of Medium, detailing the financial support they can now offer to new writers, the inspiration from a successful $70 article, and their motivation to write and sustain a reasonable lifestyle through writing.

Abstract

The author of the content has recently upgraded their Medium membership to become a Friend of Medium, which allows them to support new writers financially. They mention a 4X ratio in earnings based on subscription tiers, which seems to be a significant factor in their decision. The author was particularly motivated by an article that earned $70 and received over 3500 claps in its first day. This success story, along with observations of other writers earning substantial amounts, such as$ 3000+ in a month, has inspired the author to continue writing and to help foster a sustainable lifestyle for writers.

I enjoyed a higher earning $70 article recently that also gained 3500+ claps within about the first day it was written. It made me motivated to continue writing and support new writers.

I saw some great writers around the community who started earning $3000+ in a single month as they have also put in and invested a lot of time in their craft.

It’s motivating to see it is possible and high-quality writing is possible to be rewarded and the lifestyle is somewhat reasonably sustainable

It’s morning now- I will continue again later today.
