You will forgive my pointing out how much like Make America Great Again this survey strikes me, only in a more ageist way. As one of Medium's most prolific writers, one of her top writers in earnings (consistently in the top 10% and of that, the upper end) , having produced more than 1600 stories in three years, at 68 I am worthless to them. YET my writing has brought in hundreds if not thousands of paid subscribers. The arrogance takes my breath away. But this is Silicon Valley where arrogance is the Breakfast of Champions.
