The Pokemon Go effect: Apple is smiling

Pokemon Go, a game that turns your neighborhood into a game using augmented reality is definitely one of the hottest things to emerge this year.

In between Niantic, the game developer and Nintendo/The Pokemon Company, the owners of the Pokemon franchise, another interesting player is making some cool cash from the game.

Apple, developers of the world famous iPhone are reportedly making $13 million everyday from Pokemon Go. Apple takes a neat 30% cut off every dollar people spend inside iOS apps. A 30% cut from the revenues generated from all those apps. Massive.

Be smart, be like Apple, invest any resource it will take you and build a platform. Once you own a platform, you can as well start making passive income as you tax people who need to use your platform.

Which platforms do you currently own, but you are not maximizing?
