how much money do you make a month? why don't you get a real job?

So how many replies do you generally get? Do you only tutor webdev?
Im thinking of doing the same but with shit like "learn to use Kali linux" etc, just wondering if there's enough money in it

OP, please stop. I've done so well isolating myself from this level of stupidity, you're triggering my PTSD.

>Im thinking of doing the same but with shit like "learn to use Kali linux"
>lean to use Kali linux

I'm pretty confident that this will attract the worst kind of tutoring clients
> how do I hack facebook with kali
> zero linux experience but want to use kali because hackerforum said its l33t
etc

Since I've actually become good at teaching, and started employing some better advertising techniques, I've started finding enough work to make like $2k a month if I want. But I usually only work as much as I need to to survive, so I make about $1k monthly now.

I started at $15/hour then raised it to 20, then 25, and now I'm thinking about 30

>why don't you get a real job?
because I don't wanna work more hours

Exactly
Retarded Unix 101 projects for them
Easy money for me
And a lot of material for Cred Forums to laugh with

Lately after advertising optimally I generally have about 5-8 students at a time, and about 15 hours a week of tutoring.

I tutor Java and C++ too

I'm really curious about how life is so expensive in the US.
If you make €17/hr (=$20) here at 35 hours/week (€2600/month), you are just a few hundred or so short of the modal salary.
If you make $100/hr you can easily drive a Porsche or whatever.

You will probably get a lot of shit like . People who don't want to learn and then don't want to pay because they didnt learn anything.

I will admit that it is expensive in some cities (like $2000 average monthly rent), but $20/hour working full-time is generally more than enough to survive in any city. People who claim otherwise are just bitter entitled Liberal Arts graduates who didn't become movie stars, and the like

you're probably considering a job with stable hours and thus stable income though

Unstable income is plenty reliable though as long as you have savings as a buffer
