If I had a nickel…
So, I’m actually making a little bit of money on the blog. I feel like I should disclose this fact even though I’m not even close to breaking even with hosting costs…especially given the fact that Google puts your money in hock until you break the “payment threshold”.
Or to put it another way: “We aren’t paying you until it is worth the stamp.”
The reason that this has come to light is because Google has decided that it needs my tax information for the amount of money that I have earned (which doesn’t even cover the .com domain). Sadly it is not because I am reaching my threshold…it is very far away. I think they are just checking because of the end of the year.
In light of all this, I have set a resolution for next year. If I hit the threshold and that glorious check shows up, I’ll actually get close to breaking even on the site. So, for 2010, I’m going to try to get my money from Google.
So tell your friends, Charliemedschool.com.
