Earning $1000’s Discussing Books & Movies With Nerds on Zoom?

💬 Mahmoud Rasmi tweets about PhiloQuest Discussions

We read a book a month, occasionally watch a movie instead.

Then we get together on the last Wed. of each month… drink in hand, and discuss. It’s chill, laid back, and fun.

Mahmoud makes thousands of dollars discussing books and movies with some nerds on a zoom call.

Thousands of dollars? 🧐

Probably not.

PhiloQuest Discussions appears to be sold out with 11 sales at $120 a pop = $1320.

So not a huge ROI for Mahmoud given that he’ll have to prep for and host 12 group calls.

Then again, he is getting paid to chat about books and movies… something I suspect he’d happily do for free 😁

Another comment

Charging people money to have friends – genius.

Also, Mahmoud has a fairly small audience (6.7k followers on X), so it’s impressive he can earn even $1320/year doing this.

Could earn more over time as his audience grows and he offers more group calls 📈

Build up a respectable following on social, and you could try similar yourself.
