Buy Me a Coffee — My New Income Stream?
An anonymous person bought me a cup of coffee on Buy Me a Coffee.

I was active on Patreon but never received any support. I created a Buy Me a Coffee page and always promoted the page on my blog and YouTube channel.
The only time I received support was when I promoted it through my Medium articles.
Recently, someone bought me a coffee.
As I checked my email last week, I saw an email from Buy Me a Coffee.
“Someone bought you a coffee”
I am so grateful to that anonymous amazing person, even though I don’t know who she or he is.
I don’t know why the person hid his/her identity.
However, it is obvious that this person is one of my readers on Medium or Inuidea.com. Therefore, I would like to thank him/her through this short article.
“Thank you so much for your support. I wish you a very happy new year. 💚”
Financial support from someone you’ve never met is one of the most rewarding feelings in the world. Having people send you money just because they enjoy your writing/work is great.
I’m feeling grateful and motivated to write more. My writing will continue, as always.
While I was writing this post, another person bought me two coffees.
On Buy Me a Coffee, she revealed her identity, and now we’re connected on Instagram.
As well as buying two cups of coffee, she left this sweet message:
“Great article on Medium and I’d love to drink the coffee together with you, but maybe you just bring a friend instead of me ;) HNY 2023 and all the best, SteFF * I just joined Medium so you also find me there as SteFF_S” — SteFF Schlich
It’s true that I will not be earning much money from Buy Me a Coffee, but I am going to make some money and those who support me on Buy Me a Coffee are my biggest supporters.
Best wishes for a productive and happy new year to all of you.
The year 2022 was beautiful even with some of the worst experiences. Thank you all for your support. 💚
