You Don’t Get To Be A Billionaire By Blogging

ReadWriteWeb has a funny, although they didn’t intend it to be funny post up about billionaire bloggers. I had to chuckle a few times, check my pulse and then realize something. You don’t get to be a billionaire by blogging. While you can make good money blogging, billion dollar companies are generally hatched in the hard working factory, or by luck. You probably will see more and more billionaire bloggers but most of them will be billionaires who in their post prime begin blogging. Exceptions to this would be young billionaires like Mark Cuban.

And while the one part of me says this is nonsense. What’s a billion dollars anyhow? If it’s about the money I’d hang up the hat and walk away from the game. I blog because I want to change the world, and the pen is the only way to do that. If I want to make a billion dollars I’d have learned to play baseball, and inject myself with steroids.

What about bloggers who aren’t making a billion dollars but are changing the world? Where’s a list like that….
