Medium Gifted Me a Mac in October 2024
How did one blog on Medium buy me a Mac in just one month?
I’ll never forget writing my first article on Medium in 2022.
I sat down at my old computer and began typing away. I hit publish, feeling both excited and nervous.
While writing this story, I saw I had earned $7.94 on my first one.
What was more important to me was that the comments started coming in, and people connected with what I had to say.
It was the first time I felt like my writing mattered.
Since then, many of my stories have gone viral or ‘boosted,’ as Medium says.
In October 2024, I published a blog that changed everything for me.
I spent extra time on this one, making sure every word counted. The topic was something I had been thinking about for a long time.
It’s only 70 days, and I have made $1,100 + just on this story
108K views, 55% read ratio with 60K reads
and still going strong
My followers were not just reading it — they were engaging deeply. The comments were thoughtful, the claps kept coming, and my earnings started to rise.
In case you wish to read this blog that got me a Mac:
I couldn’t believe it.
I first thought, “I’m getting a new computer.”
My old laptop had been on its last legs for months.
But now, thanks to Medium, I had enough to buy a brand-new Mac.
The day I bought the Mac was a big moment for me. It wasn’t just about getting a new piece of technology. It was about what it represented.
This computer symbolized what I could achieve with my writing.
Thank You, Medium!
I thank Medium and Tony Stubblebine, its CEO, for creating a platform for writers like me to thrive.
So, what’s next now?
I feel more motivated than ever to keep writing.
The Mac isn’t just a tool.
I’m treating this gift from Medium as a reminder that hard work pays off. A sign that I’m on the right path, and, most importantly, a promise to myself to keep pushing me forward.
