Sup, my dudes! I’m Aris Revaldy, the mastermind (and walking disaster, ngl) behind this whole operation. Born in Indonesia but tbh, I’m basically American.exe running on Asian hardware. ba dum tss
Quick flex: I’ve got that fancy English education degree (translation: I can tell you why your grammar sucks, but I’ll be nice about it… maybe). Been there, done that with the whole freelance hustle – translation, writing, blogging, and yeah, I was that guy helping panicked students with their papers at 3 AM. No judgment, we’ve all been there!
Listen, I’m not gonna hit you with that “I’m living my best life” influencer nonsense. Bruh, I’m as broke as that promise to hit the gym in January. But hey, at least I’m honest about it, right?
Here’s the deal – I’m all about that free knowledge life. Why? Because everything I know came from legends who shared their stuff without asking for a dime. So yeah, I’m just paying it forward like a normal human being (shocking, I know).
These days, I’ve ditched translation work for blogging because, A) I love writing whatever pops into my head, and B) working in Indonesia was paying “maybe-I-can-afford-a-sandwich” money. Like, seriously? A person can’t live on vibes and instant noodles alone, ya feel me?
And yes, I can see you rolling your eyes at another blogger’s origin story. But hey, at least I kept it real, unlike those “I made a million dollars working 2 hours a week” gurus. Sheesh.
IndieGain is my digital playground where I’m helping broke people (looking at you, my dude) stack some serious cash. Whether you’re trying to get that sweet passive income flowing, hustling on the side, or turning your random skills into dollar bills, I’ve got your back. And nah, I’m not stopping there! I’m dropping knowledge bombs about money management, saving those benjamins, and leveling up skills like writing or translation (trust me, I’ve been there, done that).
Real talk? I created this site because finding legit money-making advice online is about as fun as stubbing your toe at 3 AM. IYKYK. 🙄 Like, bruh, I’m so done with these “entrepreneurs” sliding into DMs with their $999 courses promising to make you a millionaire by next Tuesday. No cap, most money-making content out there is straight trash.
IndieGain hits different though. Rn it’s basically just me (yeah, yeah, I know – such a massive “community” lol), sharing all my late-night Google deep dives, real-world experiments, and epic fails. NGL, I’ve taken some L’s so you don’t have to. You’re welcome.
Who’s this for? All my homies out there – Gen Z squad, millennials still eating ramen, side hustle enthusiasts, passive income dreamers, and literally anyone trying to secure the bag without the nonsense. Whether you’re as broke as that joke of a piggy bank on your dresser (don’t worry, same here), or just curious about making some extra cash, come through! We’re all about that grind here.
Now let’s get real about this whole AI situation 👀. Man, I’ve seen AI evolve from “aww, look at this cute calculator doing tricks” to “bruh, is this thing gonna steal my lunch money AND my job?” Wild, right?
Listen up, dude – I ain’t hating on AI (I mean, duh, I’m usually using ChatGPT to help me write). But lemme keep it 100 with you – AI content hits different, and not in a good way. It’s like that one guy at the party who only talks about cryptocurrency and his CrossFit routine. IYKYK.
Ngl, reading AI content feels like talking to someone who learned everything about life from watching paint dr- wait, scratch that – from binge-watching terrible reality TV shows. No cap, it’s giving “how do you do, fellow humans?” energy.
Y’all know what I mean, right? That robotic vibe that makes you wanna yeet your phone across the room after reading two sentences? Oof.
So here’s the tea – I’m keeping it human AF around here. While AI’s out here copy-pasting vibes, I’m the one pulling all-nighters, diving into sketchy side hustles (you’re welcome btw), and spilling all the tea – the good, the bad, and the “what in the fresh heck was I thinking?”
And hey, keeping it real with you dude – if I ever need AI to help my smooth brain with some writing (because sometimes my first drafts look like a keyboard smash), I’ll let you know. No cap, just facts.
Fr, AI needs to step up its game in the humor department. And tbh, who better to school them than me right here?
When I’m not spilling the tea about side hustles (and probably failing at half of them, let’s be real), I’m that guy who’s trying to level up his language game. RN I’m fluent in English and Japanese, but like any overachiever with too much free time, I’m hunting for more languages to butcher.
BTW, I’m also that dude who’s either:
NGL, my anime watch hours could probably earn me a Ph.D. in Japanese animes. That’s totally a thing, right? …right?
Look, I’ll roast myself first – I’m basically a professional couch potato with Wi-Fi and dreams. But hey, at least I’m self-aware!
Welcome to my corner of the internet, fam! Grab some Doritos, make yourself comfy, and let’s navigate this online money-making maze together. Trust me, I’ve fallen for enough “get rich quick” schemes to know what NOT to do (someone had to do the research, you’re welcome).
You down to join this adventure?
‘Cause I’m here to make this hustle less “what the heck is going on” and more “oh, now that actually makes sense!” Plus, I promise to keep it entertaining – that’s what happens when you mix caffeine with keyboard access.
