It's not. Believe me. I, for one, hate digital books. But let's even say I love them. I know so many people nowadays. Do you know how many use kindle that I know of? Zero. And I'm not even kidding. Seriously.
I have one offer for now and I'm waiting for the other but I don't expect much different numbers. That sum would grant me 500 copies. There's a chance I could lower that cost for 200-300e in which case I'd do the design (aka my friend would draw me the cover) and I'd finish page break myself in Indesign. I actually 95% did page break already, but it's in Word and I know publishers usually use Indesign due to different formating. But, believe it or not, they take quite a lot of profit from sales cause they'd have it stored in shops in the town. So it's not like I'd have all the book sitting at my home. Sadly, they do ask for a lot of %

Even most famous writers here don't write for living. It's way too hard unless you go abroad/mainstream.
I tried to get some info of how much would it cost to translate and hit Russians market but it seems prices are absolutely insane.
And right now, I bet if I could sell 100 copies that I'd sell 0 digital. Literally.

I can relate. No writer in Bolivia makes a living writing books.
For now you should focus on increasing your income. Then you can have your wet dream of publishing a book. You've been earning too little for too long (I can relate to this as well). Shit, I was paid 300-350 dollars a month for about 4 years in different jobs. Then I got a little more but it was still poverty money.
