Date: September 18th, 2018 8:06 PM Author: dull lodge no matter how much shit i buy on amazon or whatever im still miserable, but it's nice not to stress about making rent or buying lunch.
but longterm this isn't sustainable- most wagecucking means corporate gigs now and you have to be willing to play the womanly corporate game if you want to not change wagecuck jobs every 2-3 years, which doesn't work so well in your 40s/50s, etc.
feel like i need to quit just to detox from work/exposure to half-men for a bit and get bored/hungry so my back is up against the wall and i can get my hustle back
blah |

i wonder if i'd like buying shit more if i truly earned it with hard days of hustle and grit
right now i'm a fraud
i do work that i can teach my 14 year old nephew to do in 2 weeks
can a guy with a successful landscaping business duplicate his years of work that easily? fuck no--and that's landscaping
i'm proud of myself that i'm almost 34 and i still haven't fallen for the corporate game |

Date: September 18th, 2018 8:26 PM Author: Aphrodisiac piazza Well my exact plan won't work for others, but here are the general things I did to get this in motion
I looked at my skillset, then made a list of things I could do that could potentially generate income. I added a few complimentary skills as well that I consider marketable. These are things I can do 100% myself and don't require more overhead than my apartment. I spent a lot of time with that and came up with several viable business models. I'm taking the time now to work on marketing (build a social media platform, networking etc) and get these businesses off the ground.
I'm not expecting this to immediately replace my corporate salary, but I have enough irons in the fire that I'm somewhat confident that this strategy will pay off over the next couple of years.
I know people on here are risk averse as fuck and hate uncertainty, but if you understand your domain and aren't a complete aspie troll this is something I think can work for anybody (who isn't married/has kids etc).
edit: it probably helps that I've worked with bootstrap startups before I so I know at least the basics about business, but its really not that complicated |
