>>13466618never said i was rich. but i have no debts. i still have to earn some money, and i have a couple of side hustles I do for that. one is taxes. i recommend it to other anons looking for an easy seasonal gig. tax preparation. in the begining i just did my parents as a favour, but slowly i started doing other family members and just charging 50$, soon i was doing thier friends, then i got a business, now i have eight businesses, two corporates and about fifty personals. I do them all in about six weeks, and ussually net 12-15k per year. i work from my home office, and dont have to interact with anyone. its easy money. hardly any investment, though i did purchase some software which helped alot.
but its true Im not rich. I have always valued my time more then money. Havign the time to do what you want is the most important thing. Money can be made or lost, but time can never be replaced.
>>13466615I was working for this guy back when i was a contractor. he was like the seventh child of 11 kids or something, grew up on a poor farm in Manitoba. Started his life as a poor rural kid from nowhere canada. By the time he was fifty he was worth 80 million. He was a funny guy, cause even though he was filthy rich, he show up everyday at the jobsite before anyone, like 5am, hed be opening the gates. he owned the whole job btw, he was a land developer. Anyways hed didnt know any trades, but (and i can still hear him laugh) "I know backhoe". he would tramp around the jobsite, pushing broom, burning garbage, cleaning up, and hed be the last to leave everyday.
anyways one time we working and i asked him: "how'd you do it, how'd you go from rags to riches?" and thats when he laughed and said "One day I just decided to start doing my own thing." He explained he believed that a man has got to put himself first and get the most out of his own work, fund his own projects, take the risks, and the rewards will follow.
