Should I keep writing erotic stories as a side hustle?
So far, I have 7 erotic stories out on Amazon. Each of the stories has about 4000 words, so it takes me about 4 hours to make. I started writing these just for fun.
I'm getting a total of $50 per month. Yeah, so hardly anything. The thing that keeps me interested in doing it is that there has been a clear linear progression, where every book I write has increased my monthly profits at a pretty steady rate. So it seems pretty scalable.
I have a vacation until my next job so I'm considering brute-forcing 100-140 stories or so, and see if I can get close to $1000 a month.
Worth doing or no?

If this isn’t a troll, can I have the link? Dm it to me if you don’t want to share. It’s an interesting side hustle, I’m not sure how it’ll affect work but if your coworkers are chill, they’ll probably just laugh at the fact you write erotic stories and help you come up with new stores to write.
yoo i want the link too
Wow, people actually buy this shit??
There is a market for everything.
Yes.
I strongly discourage side hustles in finance - if you want to try to build a business with some enterprise value, great, go for it, but if you’re trying to pick up some beer money it’s almost certainly not worth it. If it works out and you earn an extra couple grand a month, that’s nice and all, but it pales in comparison to being a top performer in this industry, meeting the right people, etc. that can increase your comp by an order of magnitude over the next decade based on the work you do today.
If you enjoy the hobby and would do it for free, which it sounds like you do, different story, everyone needs to let off steam and have some fun, but if it’s a financial decision then the potential to interfere with work isn’t worth the pennies you’ll make.
Also, no judgment, but this is a very culturally conservative industry that typically requires you to report outside business activities… I’d avoid your particular side hustle for that reason alone.
This is the only correct answer. OP, please listen.
Do you need to report any income made outside your job or just income related to finance activities? I feel like that's super draconian to force all income disclosure.
Varies by company, but mine requires disclosure of any and all business activities - writing books, driving for uber, owning rental properties, etc. would all fall into this basket.
If it’s unrelated it’s usually fine you just need to disclose it, but part of the thought is not only avoiding conflicts of interest but also ensuring that you’re fully dedicating your time to activities that benefit your investors - hobbies and personal time are fine, but if you’re doing something commercial then you should be doing it for the fund.
what you write about? im genuinely curious
also how the fuck can you crank out 100-140 erotic stories?? what do you even write about at that point?
The same story. But different characters/settings.
