Even in the short mention above of New Zealand I’ve learned more about that country than following Matt on Twitter for several months. I’ve won airfare to New Zealand and hoped I’d be getting better info from Matt – seeing as he’s there and all! No offense, dude, but you spend a lot more time tweeting about computer problems and what movie you’re going to see next. I get enough of that in my day-to-day life!! I feel a bit let down, I must say.

3k is doable and I know people who make a lot more. I’m glad you followed me and I hope you’ve liked what you’ve seen.

and as you said, you used to make 3k so it’s doable. Most people just refuse to believe u can make money online….when you can.

I have no other income source then my websites. I’m not sure where you read about the money in Asia but as a personality trait, i tend to always complain im broke. I tend to spend most of what I make. I’m not a good saver. Anyways, I actually make more than 3k a month but I low balled it out there b/c I said it often in the book: you don’t get rich quick and I didn’t want people to think this was a get rich quick scheme.

You don’t have to believe me but check out the 55 positive reviews on the site before making your final call.

3k a month is certainly doable – I used to make that much (though, sadly, nowhere near that at the moment) from my websites and didn’t do anywhere near as much promotion as Matt seems to do. In an effort to learn more, I’ve followed him here from the LP Thorn Tree and onwards to various other places where he’s received free publicity. I hope to spend six months in Central America soon, so I guess I’ll have to become more of a publicity whore.

I hope your efforts continue to bear fruit.

I think he’s full of it. I’ve seen that $3000 a month figure everywhere on all the blogs I follow, but I’ve seen other places where Matt said he was hurting and needed to boost his earnings. In SE Asia you can’t live comfortably on 3k a month? I think he has a book to sell. Maybe he made $3000 in one big month, but I’m going to be skeptical until I see some proof.

I bought Matt’s ebook and have already been implementing his suggestions…. anyone who can make $3000/mo from their travel site knows a thing or too!
