Welcome back to the January 2021 detailed monthly report during these increasingly strange and desperate times!

Is Microstock still worth it in 2021?
I can categorically say no, it’s not worth it unless those consider it some sort of hobby. In my case, I’ve relegated this side-hustle to a sort of a fun past-time to upgrade some gear once upon a time as discussed above and if there’s a bit left over to spend on travel (whenever possible, hopefully soon).
There’s more money to be made picking up loose change in supermarket shopping carts or turning cans/bottles over to recycling centres for a few quarters.

If its any consolation I made $353.21 in total for Jan though I don't do video I did pick up some good TV rights sales from one Agency.
Shittystock was a bust at $100 for 218 sales 46 cents on average. I'm averaging $114 per month since May 2020 compared to $180 average for the same period 2019.
