* you commit to writing one interesting piece a day. I pay you a $1 a year.

One a day? Nothing researched or investigative then.

For $1 a year? Only the worst of the "anything for a click" would seem likely to survive that model.

Yes. You have 300k readers? Hello $300k. You have a million readers? Hello, a million a year! Half of the United States reads you? Well, hello 160 million.

You have 30 readers total? Well, you should probably get a job washing gas station floors - because your writing is just not that good.
