Plenty of people make a living publishing these days. I started self-publishing through Kobo, B&N and KDP (Amazon) two years ago and I make between 2 and 5K per month with twelve books out. There are plenty of people who make more than me.

Go to the KBoards and look up people like JA Konrath, Hugh Howey, Elle Casey, HM Ward, Joe Nobody and Russell Blake. Their posts are invaluable and will tell you what you need to know. (There are plenty of other informative posters over there too.)

If you're good and put out a professional product, you'll make decent money.
