What does it take to get started in blogging with financial compensation?

I consider myself (along with others I know) a decent writer and researcher. I’d like to get started in blogging, but I need financial compensation for the time I spend working my blog spot. I don’t have a college degree, but I do have some college under my belt. (Most college work is research and reporting, and this is most of what I did in college anyway.) Like I said, what does it take to get started, where should I go, what should I use, and how do I get started.

Thanks, and Have a Great Day!

P.S. I have also asked this question in the Business and Finance category. Thanks for your time!
