    Originally, I started writing to earn some money. However, before I knew it, it turned out that I have interest in writing, too, as I often find it pleasant, especially when writing about the things I love most. However, earning is still just as important. Bottom line, why not write for pleasure and earn at the same time while you can? smile

      True.  I originally started writing cause of the money.  Then started writing just for fun.  When I actually started making money I began to write more...

    I am definitely here for the love of writing. If I were here for the earnings, I would starve. smile

    It didn't take long for me to realize I was not going to make much $$ writing for this site (or any other) so it's strictly a hobby for me.

    Ha, money always help, however what is paid here can't be called "money" ( I never got any cent yet) so, it is for the fun of writing, and getting comments...

    Both. The idea started with money, but if I hated it, I wouldn't still be writing.

    Having been seriously ill (detailed in my profile), on the road to recovery I wrote some hubs for my own amusement. I don't think I'm going to get rich and I really don't care! Tony

    I love to write. Technical writing pays the bills. Hubpages provides the possibility of getting paid for writing what I like to write, from fiction to frugal living tips.
