That is incredible, it's just really unfair that you can't join the partner programme. I'm sure I have read about people from India finding a loophole around that, but I could be wrong.

I also think you could have potentially earnt a lot more than that. I had an article with just 32k views and it's just tipped over $2,500 in earnings.

I wish you many more successful articles that follow. Congratulations.
