Picture this... Creating a blog to document your financial independence journey that paid you NOTHING.  Then by almost accident, you make your first $100.00 and a light bulb goes off. You realize your blog COULD BE your business.  And now this once hobby makes you over $100,000.00 a month and has allowed you to buy a boat and travel around the world!  If you are me, this sounds almost like a dream, right?  Well, this is what happened to Michelle, today's Bonus FinCon Friday Episode.
