One died in a car accident, the other main one had a lot of babies who now have their own babies. I moved continents and changed my name through marriage before I opened any social media accounts, so I have no idea what happened to the bulk of them.
Husband and I have a standing bet to be the first person to do 10 handstand pushups on a stage. Not sure why the stage is involved, and I can’t remember what the prize is. Also it’s been over 5 years since we made it, and neither of us can do a single one yet. But I think of it often.
I publish through Amazon Print on Demand services (Amazon Merch and KDP), and I have a few other stores selling items too. Basically I design the manuscripts and graphics, upload the files to the service, they list it, and when it sells they print and fulfill it and send me a portion of the profit.
One Christmas I made $8k in a month and we went on a cruise with the profit. Those were good times! It’s settled down a bit now as more people have flooded the platforms and copied all the content.
I make about $7k a year from some books and T-shirt designs I did a few years ago. I literally do nothing to maintain them (I put in the hard work making them originally) and the money just goes in my bank each month. It’s certainly not enough to live on, I have a full time job, but it pays for our groceries.
Three 27" monitors. Right one is portrait, has Slack and music player split screen, left is email or reference material, center one is for doing the actual work.
I work in a customer facing role but also do graphic design, write books, make music, and occasionally code things.
Massive productivity boost. When I work from my laptop I feel like a grandma.
