I doubt her book has sold enough copies to pay out what little advance she may have got, much less royalties, and there are only so many landwhales privileged enough to be able to afford her "Babecamp" events (which I don't even think she's offering any more, due to abysmally low turnout at the last one).
If this sales calculator is accurate, she's only selling about 4 physical books a day, and 1 e book per day - definitely not enough to quit her day job if she still has one (which I don't believe she does anymore given how much she travels). She's still running an online only version of babecamp to the tune of almost $300 per person, but considering she panders to a crowd that whines about being poor almost as much as they whine about not getting hit on by hot dudes, I can't imagine she has a ton of participants. Even if she's lucky enough to get 5 at a time, an extra $1500 here and there is not going to make a dent when she's competing with people who are making tech salaries.
I have absolutely zero clue as to what her speaking engagements or Forbes gig would pay. She doesn't actually show much her living situation on social media from what I've seen, so I always assumed it was something fairly unglamorous, like having to share a studio or 1 bedroom with a platonic roommate.
