currently employed earning something like 70k a year
I've been a developer for 10 years or so but every software business I've tried has failed to return more money than the time I've invested in.
I'm scared to try any new ideas because I don't want to end up wasting any more time.
is anyone in the same boat ?

>developer for 10 years earning 70k do you live in India? I'm making 55k my first year and I still feel like i'm getting scammed

>> tried developing apps/games for android, failed >> tried developing apps/games for iphones, failed These are both terribly oversaturated markets, it's not strange that you didn't turn a profit. >> tried developing service oriented site, failed Hard to say how bad this is without knowing more details.

>developing apps/games for android/iphones Bad idea. Those places are so full of shit apps/games its frustrating to even to browse.

You should follow your dreams AFTER you become a millionaire.

I started at 58k out of college and am around 70k base salary with nice benefits 5 years later. It might seem low, but in a low COL area (e.g. not coasts or big cities) it's still plenty of money. idk about OP's situation though.

You are right guys, I had to learn the hard way. Making good money in the app stores is like winning the lottery.
What am I supposed to do with my knowledge ? start another scam shitcoin ?
