I love your tutorials, they are well structured, full of valuable information. You really taught me a lot and I keep learning things from you. So, please continue what are you doing, because it is really awesome :)! Thank you.

    Definitely make a small software on the side and sell it. I have made quite a bit with this route. I still have a job but it was a great decision to make something on the side. One thing you can do is if you have a job and you write your own utility to solve a problem at your job, turn that into a product. If you find a need and fill it with your software it has a good opportunity for growth.
