... how... does copywriting... have ... margins?
What are you classing as expenses?
You need an AP Style Guide, and your brain, and working eyes and fingers and a keyboard mouse and computer.
Wtf are margins?
You have an ongoing regular cost?
... this is a guide on how to set up some kind of LLM to do your copywriting, isn't it?

The broker that my retirement account is through is pushing some new AI insights tool. The screenshots show an example of a conversation that essentially goes.
Q: "How can I reach my retirement savings goals faster?"
A: "Consider contributing more to your 401k from each paycheck."
People will actually pay money to have some slop chatbot tell them that they can have more money in their account if they put more money in their account. Preying on stupid or lazy people is an extremely lucrative industry.

Dude’s a copywriter and can’t use “it’s” properly. Grammar must be less important when you’re making 400k a month.

This isn't just the scamming internet randos, it goes into pretty high level business consulting.
"We just hired a company that has never worked in our field who doesn't employ anyone who has worked in our field to tell us how to work in our field better than we do today, this should be great!"
They always act so shocked that the consultancy did them zero good after giving them a few months.

"from my tiny, 1 bedroom apartment...."
The word “journey” has been completely ruined by business idiots.
Reminds me of those ads where scammer pretends if you invest in some obvious scam you too will own a jet and a Ferarri just like him. If it was such an amazing way to make money the last thing they'd do is tell anyone else about it.
If you could make that kind of money with copy writing, I'd be rich. Copy writers, tech writers, basically any kind of writers are always underappreciated and underpaid.
how do you suppose theyre making that 400k?

Why are you teaching him why his scam isn't working?

Is the headline a reference to the smart move during a gold rush being to sell mining equipment instead of land claims?
"This is boring but it makes me a lot of money"
I know I'm privileged, but having an interesting job is way more important to me than the salary.
400k/month copywriting? Bull fucking shit.
Even if that was a typo and they meant 40k/month, it's bullshit.
