Medium Writers: Please, stop bragging about your Medium earnings
In the last few weeks, I see a lot of headlines with titles on how much they earn writing through Medium or at another platform. It irritates me a lot.
Why on earth would someone know what you earn through your writing? Why would you even write about it in the first place? I mean, I wouldn’t brag about my earnings, because it is something personal.
I don’t care about the earnings you earned during your career. Really!! I don’t really care about it. Why would you brag about your earnings? I do get it that you would help others how to use this wonderful platform. But do you really help others by bragging about your earnings? At least, that’s how it looks like to me.
You can help others by telling the steps on how to earn, but I don’t care what your earnings are and how much your salary monthly is. Why should I know what you earned today by writing or any other profession? Of course, there are people in the world earning way a lot more money than others, but there are families who have so many difficulties to cope for a month. Just because they don’t have money. It’s part of the world.
