Default 300.000$ in 3 months with a blog

Another story of a “money making” blog.

In January 2008 Christian Slater started a blog on wordpress.com, with 0$ invested. His blog is named “Stuff White People Like” and in late February it came into NPR (Talk of the Nation) attention to establish if it’s a racist or a satire writing.

After a month, on 20th of March, a publishing house named Random House made an announce in which it says that they have paid 300.000 $ for the copyright and that they’ll publish a book named Stuff White People Like.

This is how a 3 months old blog could make you 300.000$ richer.
