Comment on Ask HN: Is it too late to make a side income by creating Udemy courses/similar?parent

Comments

Thanks for the input. That was kind of my thinking, I'm not expecting to start making courses and leave my job in 12 months time, this is more something to keep me occupied, give me a reason to keep learning new skills, and a definitely portfolio/cv padder.

I've been sat doing some research on Udemy for a couple of hours and it really seems things like Python are heavily covered, and even though I'm not aiming to do this purely to make money, it would be disheartening to put effort in to a course that's buried amongst 10,000 others. Maybe niche subjects like monitoring, where most won't bother due to low viewer counts, are where it's at nowadays.

Make sure you post it to HN when you are done! I'm definitely interested in checking it out.

Thanks for the extra motivation!
