[Revenue Update] May 2021 - 0.36% of $1,000,000 Goal
Using a different accounting method from previous months (ex: April). I will now be downloading payment reports and then reporting on the true profit. This accomplishes 2 things:
1. I will start having an accurate accounting of true profit (I was incorporating Google’s 30% fee in my previous months).
2. I can start easily showing total profit across all apps, now that I have a new Bento app which is also starting to show sales in June.
May 2021: $300.05
$1M/year goal progress: 0.36%
Not feeling great about this. I’ve been plugged away building my apps for about 6 years now. I can’t help feeling demotivated in my current state around whether this is the place I should be pouring in my time and energy. I love the work and becoming a better app developer is something I enjoy doing, but I also need money.

I want to live in a space with more natural lighting, a view - not this cramped Redwood City apartment I live in. My parents are getting older and health needs are undoubtedly going to come up. I need money to take care of them.
