At 33 I was single, working 12-hour shifts & lost in life. Now at 44 I’m married with 2 beautiful daughters, work 3-5 hours a week & the happiest I’ve ever been. Here’s how I did it (so you can too):
Although I’ve found success with self-publishing on Amazon & now have a beautiful family of 4… It wasn’t always like this. I never really knew what I wanted to do with my life…
I couldn’t stay at a job for longer than 6 months. I kept quitting, thinking there must be a better job out there. But every time, I was proved wrong. They were all equally terrible. & This is how I spent my 20s:
I used to work at Global Retainer Terminals. My shifts were 6pm to 6am. It was a four on, four off schedule. But by the time I recovered & ran errands... I'd have 2 days left, then it was back to work. I was miserable. But then everything changed...
I was working one day when my friend Stefan contacted me about his new business. He was self-publishing books on Amazon. & Making $3,000/month doing it. To me, that was a ton of money. The best part? He didn't have to work at a crappy office. I was was intrigued...
The big shift happened when I started working with Stefan's brother Andreas. He had a very successful construction business. But to my surprise, he had left it to start publishing. & He found success right away. This is when I knew I had to go all in. So I did...
My first attempt at Amazon KDP was writing my own book. But without writing experience, it was taking too long. So I found a company that writes books for you. & I started paying them to write me books…
The first few books I published did well: A couple thousand a month in royalties. But I really started seeing success when I published a couple of cookbooks. They led to my first $10,000/month in Amazon royalties. & With the consistent income I was making…
I finally quit my job. & Flash forward 8 years: I’ve self-published 300+ books in every niche, from fiction to cookbooks. They’ve made me over 7-figures in royalties over the years. & I sold 1 of my publishing names for $70k USD. But the best part?
This has allowed me to have complete freedom & spend my days with my 2 amazing daughters. All because of the power of KDP passive income. This is the life 30-year-old me thought was impossible. & Now it’s my reality.
