congrats on the rankings.
top 20 is awesome

$250/month is a a big accomplishment.
yea for some folks it does not compare to job compensation,
but it certainly can pay some bills or buy something extra
and for others it could be the difference of money making it to the end of the month
and for others it could be more than a job pays them in their country.

The point is, there is opportunity for those that will effort (as yourself did)
I hope your post encourages others to give it a huge effort and see the results later
