Nikkas are really eating off Youtube

So its impossible to make 20k a month coding apps?

Its not. But If I remember correctly the average mobile app makes around 50$. Getting rich off mobile apps boat sailed a long time ago due to apps floating the market. It still happens, but its like playing the lottery now a days.

One of those channels started in 2011 though

It's almost 2015...do your math again.

1 guy( notch) made Minecraft and started Mojang........

oh my bad thought it was notch and like 2 of his coleagues. Crazy though. Isn't minecraft the game that got pewdiepie big?

Ofcourse not. But clearly not everyone who simply knows how to code is making money.

No shyt. Technically i know how to code, doesn't mean i'm good at it.

Guess what i should have said is if you take the time to master coding you can make 20k a month easily. Not that hard to build a successful little app. Especially if you have a new or innovative idea or you steal an idea that is fairly new and clone it. Rank a few youtube video reviews on it, pay to get it featured in the app stores, it'll do the rest by itself.

And when i say its easy i don't mean its so easy a 3 year old can do it. I mean its easier and more lucrative then a 9-5. Hard to get started at first. But after the first year when you have maybe 3 decent apps launched you'll be sitting around scratching your ass while stackin on autopilot.

You gotta get lucky. You can make decent money if you teach you stuff.

not sure about the pew guy. But Notch created Minecraft after finding the game inifiniminer. Once the game started selling, he created mojang with a friend and former boss.


You can check out this thread when he first started working on it ( crazy looking back at it )

Nah don't learn to code save your money up and hire somebody to do it for you instead of taking the time to learn coding unless you really into it.

Its never too late people always going to want something new so don't listen to anybody saying you can't eat off stuff just gotta start by putting that work in.

Honestly this depends on the type of person you are. I'm not good with technical shyt so i probably will end up doing something similar to do this if i ever get involved in apps.

But if you're a dude whose good at technical stuff its good to learn to code. Coding is a skill. You can get a job coding and be bringing in steady money while you build your apps. And when you code the app yourself you take out a lot of the risk. App flops you wasted your time and a few bucks.

Successful apps sell for like 20k plus. You buy an app that is supposed to be successful and it flops you're out 20k.

You pay a team to develop an app for you you're still gonna be out at least 10k. Prolly more cuz what decent developer/team of developers is gonna make you apps on contract when they could go get paid by the hour or make an app themselves and eat all the profits.

You starting out with a lot of revenue this might be a good idea. You're starting out with nothing best to just suck it up and learn to code.

Yea cuz the majority of the apps in the app market are trash. Trash that nobody ever even downloads or sees cuz the developer doesn't even make an effort to promote them.

Thats like saying the majority of rappers don't get paid shyt. Ofcourse cuz errybody and their mama is an aspiring rapper. But if you take the time to sit down, think of something original, hone your craft, and invest in yourself you WILL make a return. You might not get rich but you'll get an return on your investment.

Nah man apps to get you in the game don't cost that much. If you trying to make the next Facebook, angry birds, etc yeah you going to spend bread but as with most things you scale up and believe me it don't cost nowhere close to them numbers you putting out to get in the door. I also guess because I'm don't look at coding as a future "job" I could care less. This is done for the paper (for me and cats I know) so I let those more qualified do that and I handle the business stuff.

I agree with you about the apps/rapper analogy but as normal when people don't know about stuff they talk from a perspective usually based on others views and no deep understanding of their own. That's ok until talking with people that know what they are talking about then you start looking bad.
