Are you making a career as a writer?

I know a guy that knows a guy that handles the taxes for a mob family.

maybe he can help you figure out how to wash that money and make it clean.

Nope. I ain't made one penny from my writing.

Is that something you've thought about?

I enabled monetization just cause I can, but I don't think I'll actually make any money since you're only paid when someone with a premium subscription reads your article. I just write for fun.

Well, plenty of people make a living doing what you consider fun. If you're looking for a career, you may want to entertain the idea. You write very well.

Thank you! :D

I've entertained the idea — I've even enabled monetization on my Medium articles — but I just don't make any money from it.

Digital books sold at Amazon for around $1 or $2 each can earn several hundred $ per month, depending on their popularity. I know someone who sells self-help books in this manner.

I've published an e-book on Amazon, but no one's bought it LOL

Congratulations!

Perhaps change the title.
