- In this video you'll learn the only consistently reliable way to start a business and quit your day job within the next 6 months. To learn more visit me at www.handymanstartup.com
But I have to warn you. The ideas I share here aren't sexy. I'm not promising you that you'll get to rub shoulders with celebrities, sit on the beach while your business runs on auto-pilot, or any other BS that only gets sheep to buy training programs that will never get them results.
In this video you'll learn...
The type of businesses you want to avoid like the plague if you're serious about ever leaving your day job.
The type of business to focus on that will allow you to start generating cash flow within the next couple of weeks using your existing set of skills.
An interesting quirk about other business owners that gives anybody with a bit of motivation a tremendous edge.
Plus, a bulletproof plan for starting a business that gives you the freedom and security you need to tell your boss you quit for good.
I've personally built several businesses over the last 7 years and I had to learn this the hard way. Just like millions of American's I was stuck in a soul-crushing job that wrecked my health. If you're stuck in a job you hate, then I hope this lights a new path for you to go down. - Jak na to + styl
I dont know whats worse counting the hours to leave everyday, or counting the days till Friday.
Counting the hours lol
pm2007est both
How about counting the hours of freedom you have left before you have to go back in...😫
For me, both are worst.
yep , thanks dude !
A few key points to add to this is in order to quit your 9-5 job, lower your cost of living. In other words, pay off all debts, learn to live well but frugally, don't get sucked into consumerism and be self sufficient as much as possible
KESDtv ...good tips ...thanks
Best advise ever.... problem is no one will follow it.
This is how we live, but no one we know will follow this advise.
worst thing you can do is lower your cost of living. i'd much rather increase my income instead.
Or you can live by the 20$ bill rule!
Keep track of every 20$ bill you spend a week and the more 20$ bills you save per week x52= 1040 a year you either will save or spend each year!
KESDtv why not just make more money lmao
Best way to get rich quick? Sell books and courses about how to get rich quick.
@BE HUMAN NOTHING LESS I enjoyed reading that, good stuff :-)
Yes let's feed the people's delusion
Best way to get rich? Don't act poor.
Being rich quick is evolving and getting more complex but its still same nonsense dropshipping, retail arbitrage, affliate marketing.
@BE HUMAN NOTHING LESS ha, you pretty much told everyone what others charge for and nobody sees it. They would rather argue about everything being a scam. Makes it easier for us though eh.
thank me later 8:00
Thank you
Cheers bro
Thanks
Thank you bro!
Thank you! ♡
9-5 is a slavery we don't talk about enough, I'm happy people are trying to get out of the chain.
Many people, especially the younger generation are engaging in a variety of unorthodox activities to make a living.
Side hustle and hobbies, content-creating online. Social media is a fast growing market rn I applaud them.
2020 was mu turning point and investing pit me on the right track.
You're very right .
There's almost nothing interesting or motivating about 9-5
I also think the problem is employers wanting an education way beyond the skills that is necessary to do the job .
I really applaud anyone beating the system to make a living. I'm currently working 2 Jobs and still living on each paycheck with no freedom
@@jasonramon6153 The 2020 pandemic gave me a mental and life reset. I tried out a lot of stuff, side hustle and investing. I realized having savings just sitting in the bank is useless. I take lesser work hours now, do my side hustle grow passive income from my investments and have time for my family.
@@emilyrose5386 having freedom to spend time with your family is what I consider a huge win 👌
Your right brother, people want to earn a living not being enslaved.
Inflation has been on the rise but no increase just pay cuts flying around.
"some people are just not meant to live in a cage"
Sounds like me my job a prison
💯💯💯 exactly what a job is!
No one should live in a cage. Human reliance on slavery is a fundamental mistake at the core level of our social construct.
Just some of the reasons why I hate office jobs;
- They will always overload you with more work than is possible to do in the 9-5 hours so you have to work overtime for nothing or be judged for not getting everything done
- Office politics are vicious! In my experience colleagues are so two faced. They'll be your best friend to your face and then try and get you sacked behind your back
- The above takes a huge toll on mental health
- Physical health suffers from being stuck to a desk for 10 hours a day and only being allowed to eat or snack during certain hours
- Pay is so sporadic - what i mean by this is, is that in my experience its never the best colleagues that earn the most or get the promotions. Usually it's the ones who brown nose the managers or get lucky. Also I have found out what a few of my colleagues earn (by seeing their job advertised before they started etc) so essentially two people doing the same job in the same company can have VERY different salaries
- you feel like a caged animal and are very replaceable to the business so never get any recognition for anything
I've worked at a restaurant for 2 years. Now I just turned 18 so it was while I was in high school so not having to do it for a living. Anyway I totally get what you mean. I have been told by almost everyone that I am one if the best employees that works there. Yet after 2 years I it get 8.50 an hour. Meanwhile people who are starting get 9 and annoying people who no one likes are getting promoted
Sad but true. Have you managed to find something you love yet?
this is sooo true.. i literally thought to myself, why am i clocking in to be annoyed nd exhausted before 10am . smhh
AMEN
I think the majority of your points can be applied to most jobs
Started a small service business going on 22 years now. Best thing I ever did. The keys for me were: honesty, reliability, consistency, quality and reasonable prices. But when you work for yourself, there is no pension coming so you must prepare for that also. I bought 5 rental homes that bring me good retirement income but you have to take care of them also and do your own maintenance whenever possible. Other important things to do....save your money, rise early (you will never be successful sleeping in), put your phone away when your working....wastes your time), and stay away from drugs and alcohol.
and stay away from gambling
I like this comment.
How is this better than a 9-5. The point is to not kill yourself just to get by. You'll have even less freedom w this hustle culture you describing.
@@cjstats1514 I don't kill myself, I never work more than 40 hours and I bring in six figures. And I always take time off to do things with my kids. If you like working 9-5 for companies that don't care about you, then that is for you. I would never give up what I have to be a slave to someone else.
@@CJohn33 In that case that's really good. You're one of the lucky ones. Not to diminish your hard work to get there. Not many pple work 40hrs now days. Most work 50 plus just to make around $50,000. The average is about $42,000 in the US.
My first Income I do a normal 9-5 job, my second income I put it back to work to make more money because I'm not just after the money but the freedom to live on my terms Lol 😁
Yeah and 9-5 cant give you the freedom you need. An extra income stream passive income is a great option keep it going 💯
@@phillawson5785 yeah I make 3 to 5k monthly as extra income from my Investing trying so much to build more side hustles and extra income
You're doing great keep it going dear 👏
Hey kimaya speaking of investing I have heard about this but I don't really know how to start and make a good investment pls can you explain?
@@sandramish2229 there's a lot of investing options real estate, cr ypto, ETFS, stocks but my best advice get a professional FA lead you into profitable one
I appreciate this video, I’m quitting my job and staring a service business by the end of this year. Your video came right on time! Not everyone is meant to be caged in a cubicle all day.
Good luck! 😉👍👍
How did it go?
Update?
What happened?
Update plssss
This is the first realistic and helpful “how to quit your job” video I’ve ever heard. Good work
This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my CZcams channel 5 months ago about self development. Now I have 317 subs and almost > 100 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I couldn’t have learned without getting started in the 1st place.
Now your almost at 1000 keep up the good work your doing great
Love your perspective. When I quit my 9-5 I encountered a lot of get rich quick ideas and I realized it's all about utilizing and leveraging your own skills. Thanks again for sharing! Also, the major reason I quit was because of the freedom I desired!
The freedom I desire too.
People: "Just work hard."
Reality: "It's hard to see things clearly, when you only hear from the winners. This creates an *illusion that everybody who works hard, succeeds. That's not the case.*
Ben W You can’t just work hard but success is still 100% accessible to 100% of Americans. You have to work hard AND smart. If you’re a first generation wealth builder then you may not see much wealth in your lifetime but your kids will and their kids definitely will if you raised them right. Yes to those who have much, more will be given and to those who have little, more will be taken but that’s true as a flow of nature, not as an immutable force. You can change the course of history for your bloodline, if you don’t then one of your kids or grandkids will have to do the work you didn’t want to. You say it creates an illusion that everyone who works hard will inevitably succeed but I disagree, I think it shows that nobody succeeds who doesn’t first work hard. There may be a handful of reasons that differ per person that led to their success but that handful of reasons always includes hard work. I’m not technically a first generation wealth builder but I also am, my mother didn’t grow up with wealth but my dad did. My grandfathers a business owner and an investor and a real DIY guy, I’ve gotten to see him outwork me all my life. My dad didn’t like his parents much so he rebelled against them and their wealth building habits, he’s never had a real steady job with room to grow my entire life and I never grew up with much, he also taught me how to work my ass off but unlike my grandfather, he taught me how to work hard for nothing. I’ve seen first hand the way wealth building can just suddenly stop an entire lineage from the wealth its due. The difference between my father and grandfather is really only one thing, working smart. Working for yourself instead of for someone else creates freedom. Freedom creates creativity of thought and liberty of mind. Freedom also creates access to opportunity. Those together give the chance to innovate in your business and to find other ways of building wealth including starting a whole other business. Wealth from these things invested consistently over time yields enormously. These things together (this is certainly not the only way, just an example) build a foundation of wealthy thinking which allows you to build a mighty castle of wealth in which your family can live for longer than you’ll be remembered. I’ve chosen to follow in my grandfathers footsteps and restart the wealth building habits that he instilled in me and that were instilled into him by his father who was a statesman and a tradesman but who never saw too much wealth himself. Wealth is a generational thing and sometimes you can’t just have it, you have to build it.
Gotta work hard and smart
Trenton Farris Damn. Great points. You can’t just have wealth, you have to build it.
the key is to align yourself to your values and passions. Not just work but the main areas of your life. Then devise a plan. A plan that has the micro steps to get to your goals
@@giannobong6778 Thank you so much for your insight! I pray you're building wealth as we speak! I plan to use the philosophies you so generously shared. ❤
Spending your own time building your own business knowing your time is going 100% to your future is the best feeling there is. It doesn’t matter if you make $30,000 a year and can barely survive for a few years until you grow. It’s way more stressful than working for someone else though because you don’t just show up and clock in. You have to work hard all day every day but you’re working for yourself
Best fucking comment. 3 years in. I needed this man i appreciate you for this now i can celebrate my birthday with a new perspective. 👁
I have a few ideas. I’m terribly sick of the 9-5
"If it was that easy... Everybody would F%cking do it." Didn't expect the F bomb thrown up in here. Hahaha Subscribed
Its true though it's not easy or fast.
It is exactly when I quit listening.
Well, it is a pretty bad advice. What is the easiest way to financial independence? Utilise the things you already have. But tell that to 100 people and 95 will laught their ass off at you. They have to have a new kitchen every 10 year. A new car every 5 years. And go on a holiday twice a year. People "struggle" not because it is so damn hard to live a comfortable life this day and age. It is because they want others to think they earn much more then they actualy do. It takes so little, it is so easy. Yet almost nobody is able to do it.
@@kofola9145 More like a new car every 2nd year around here. Consumerists 😑
Loki for president
Thanks for not sugar coating the reality. I have been thinking about this for a long time and you are very right. Yeah, the job you gave yourself may not be glamorous but YOU chose it
I thought this was going to be annoying but turns out it's some good insight
I think do too
@Andrew Man111 What do you do for a living?
@Andrew Man111 So you still live with your parents?
@Andrew Man111 I'm sorry. Your life must suck. Kid? My kids can talk better shit than you. Try being original. Your mom jokes stopped being funny in the early 90's, kid. Let me know if you need any service work done. I can help you build a house when you're done living in your parents basement.
i thought it was going to be bs turns out i got a lot to reevaluate
Honestly this is the single best advice vid on this topic Ive seen to date.
You hit the nail on the head brother! I was scared to death when I started my business because there was so much competition but I learned real quick that most people just talk a big game and are not big on actions. I run a farm and I sell at a market that has six vendors that sell the same thing I do. Last week I almost sold out of everything I had and even had additional orders while the couple next to me made $40. It's as much about marketing as it is about doing the physical labor. If you truly put in the time and effort you will be successful.
Pooper scooper business? That's freaking genius. Every apartment and park around here is covered in it. Could get contracts from the city and the property management companies
The fact that we watched your video all the way through, says a lot. Good advice, and a refreshing change from all those 'quit your job, become an online entrepreneur & live on a tropical island type videos, that 'plague' CZcams. Well done😀
Finally someone saying it how it is!!! Thanks for the honesty and not trying to sell me some seminar. Best of luck
This is some of the healthiest career advice I have see on the internet in a looooong time. Thank you!
Great job. And better presentation. Congrats. Enjoy your better, lower stress life.
How did you advertise?
Simple, clear, informative. Nice.
Feeling your flow and your straightforwardness here. Good looking out.
Wow! Probably the most down to earth realistic advice.
Thanks.
Man thank you for your sincerity about this. I've watched several of these videos you talk about and honestly, sometimes you feel even worse, hopeless. I've been working 15 years on same job and for the last couple of months I'm thinking how and what else I can do. Thx👍🏼
Any update?
Great and fresh way of looking at a fundamental idea of how and why to start a business.
I appreciate this video. Short, honest, kick in the but to wake up. Thank you.🌸
Oh my goodness!!! This is definitely a game changer. Honestly you have given me something so valuable. Thank you!
My man keeping it real! I’ve struggled with starting a business for more than 10 years specially graphic design. I just kept feeling like there’s a billion graphic designers. I get the whole positioning and differentiating thing but that was not enough. Your video inspired me to use my biggest resource which is my personality, honesty and work ethic to build real personal relationships to get noticed and build my business from the inside out. The website, SEO, funnels, personal branding world is not for me.
Great Vid bro! You just said exactly what I've been telling myself for the last year💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 Making moves, this year is going to be my last year working for anyone other than myself!
Davier Mosby Man yeah same here I’ve been really on the fence about starting this side business, I actually do a little side work as it is and it doesn’t take long to maybe 3-4 job around 1hr each to make my 40hr+ week paycheck, this video is encouraging!
How's the current condition
@@RahulSahu-gx7ej Its going good man. I offer a couple Services and money is good. I literally just started a month ago
This is a really great video dude, thank you for some down to earth practical information.
So much value in this video! 90% of the stuff i have already thought about alone! nice to see other people in my way of thinking
Everybody in the world wants something for doing nothing. It’s good to see somebody who actually advocates being of service others.
This video helped me so much man!! Thank you so much for cutting the bs and getting into the real stuff
Thanks man, your videos are awesome and straight to the point. I've started 2 businesses that didn't go well after 1 1/2. But I never gave up.
Thank you thank you thank you for sharing this. I have been wanting to start a house cleaning business for 4 years and have not had much encouragement or support from those around me so its discouraging. This is highly motivating to ignore all that and do what I feel in my gut is best
I know a woman that got tired of factory work 30 years ago and she ended up making a fantastic business that she mostly could control her own schedule. Note: most people were fine with the schedule "she" made to come and clean. I also knew a young man that made a cleaning business and even at one time he had at least 3 or 4 crew's. Sounds good. Good luck and go getum girl.
Have you started yet? If so, how's it going?
I'm loving this, great video
Here's another tip. Once you start your own service for hire business.Your not escaping your day job; you're getting attached to the hip at your new all day job,and then taking it home with you.
But at least you'll be working for yourself.
And if you get enough clients you can start hiring people to do the work for you.
Mantas Valciukas
That’s usually very far down the road. Being a self employed is a facade. Most folks doing handyman services are so broke and desperate that they need to take any and all jobs. Weekends, late nights, no benefits.
I work for my two friends who opened their own business. We work 7 days a week, work til 9,10, sometimes later, at night. But hey, it's not a 9 to 5 job. They've had the business for a couple of years now. It's doing well, but it's years, maybe a decade away, from being able to get a full day off every week , much less a skii trip.
Yeah, you pay the piper either way, but it is the difference between renting and owning your own life.
@@roadrunner76b Could it be, as some other commentors have suggested, that your lifestyle expenses are too high? Cutting costs is the same as earning more, in a sense.
I subscribed just because of how realistic this is. Keep the videos coming coz you just might be someones mentor.
Well presented. Also, and most importantly, factual. Thanks! I needed that.
Very inspiring ! Thank you man.
And 1 thing don't be afraid to pass you business cards and offer your business to people randomly!
I make that mistake often !
Good advise. I think this is a good way for anyone to get there foot in the door. Make sure it is something you are passionate about
Absolutely amazing video! Thanks for posting!!
Probably the most realistic “off the shelf” business advice I’ve seen on youtube.
Thank You! I think many people should hear this! The problem is everyone wants it fast and easy. This is a very down to earth no BS advice!
One thing to add to it, when you are picking this business make sure to like doing that job!
I want it quick and easy.......so tell me are ya gonna make me wait?
A sobering and realistic video on escaping the matrix. Thank you!
I don't know that your actually "escaping" the matrix. Your more or less just re-purposing yourself within it. You still have all the same old bills and other life responsibilities to contend with.
@thebman80 Not being able to pay the bills without relinquishing control of your own life schedule to someone else IS the matrix. Escaping it, in this context ,means you can live on your own terms, pace, and style. The 9-5 grind works for a some but absolutely soul crushing for most.
Apptato the Matrix is real, the movie was one of the best but sucks "in the real" life
@@thebman80 matrix = mind tricks
Speaking truth and logic. That is very rare for these type of videos. Well done!
Something so simple yet people miss it. A lot of us are good at something we just got to try it out and keep moving forward. Thank you for this video I think you helped me understand what to do !
9-5 jobs are no fun. I came up with my escape plan 4 years ago and have never looked back.
What did you end up doing?
Kudos to you!!
cool story, helpful, useful even?
Soooo, the secret to starting a business is to start a business......genius!
Simply start a business make mistakes, learn from them and keep it moving
DennyMac so true haha
He said, start offering a service. That is far more specific than what you said.
@@jeanalexandre1105 no worries for financial problems and working 15hr
The only way to scape being an employee is starting some form of business (thats the many topic of this video). However there are ways to get money by investing, but to be honest no average employee have the enough capital to yield high profits from it. So yes, you do need to start a business.
Your no bullshit transparent approach sold me in less than 5mins. Subbed
Great info, i like your no nonsense, no fluff,realistic approach & insights !
I enjoyed the video. You clearly define that's not only butterflies and rainbows out here hustling while trying to break-out from the modern slavery machine. You're a great person for sharing this with the others and spreading the word for others who are seeking the same. Thank you!
Finally someone honest about this kind of stuff
Enjoyed your honesty and frankness, your Right as Rain about best way to succeed in business is to be in business.
Don't Ever fear standing on your own,.!
Simple and very interesting . Thank you for sharing
I've only watched 40 seconds so far, and let me say that this video is exactly what I needed. I quit my high-paying job last year this month, and went through a roller coaster of emotions. My idea was to save money on rent by living out of a van and starting a business. I lived in my van for 1 day after building it for 8 months, and decided to sell it. It WAS the most difficult thing I've ever endured in my life; The handyman business I had to shut down because rent was too high and I sold my van. Now I live back at home with my parents. I lack the execution of ideas due to my antisocial characteristics. Bouncing back one grain of sand at a time.
Tanner education does not matter. Find something you care about and do something in that field/area.
Yup. I did the exact same thing with house cleaning. I was a Silicon Valley executive. Now I have freedom, love what I do and make a good living.
i love you. thank you for spreading this information
You are onto something! Time and energy are important.
Dang Man U giving this information for free ?? Thank you man, appreciate it a lot
Good video! I started my own cleaning company and I quit my job! I only work 3 days a week
Do you have staff that u hired?
Thanks for providing info for those of us looking to quit our job.
I love the transparency!
After all the hyped up real estate investing and web app make millions media this is the most realistic and refreshing video. It's exactly what I needed to see before i go to that job I hate. I have really thought about getting into the sprinkler business. This has given me a bit more confidence to go in that direction. thanks
Real estate investint, imo, is the end all be all. That is where your hard earned money should be parked.
I'm glad to see other people with the same mindset. Service based business to get monthly payments and be my own boss + working on my passion and other idea aside.
Don't put your energy into too many things at the same time, 1-2 businesses or ideas at most.
Hulio Dos Santos Do 1 business at a time. Unless you have more time and money than most people, it’s almost impossible to start 2 businesses at the same time.
@@taoist32 Read what I wrote... I wrote businesses OR *IDEAS*.
Me for example: I have my own service based business, but go to school aside and study finance, my goal is to be able to manage my own portfolio.
Now to actively run two MAIN businesses wouldn't be a good idea. I 100% agree on that.
well done bro, liked the vid and practicality.
You are so right on. I am always looking at different perspectives on being self employed. I have been that way most of my life. Every time I think about actually getting a real job so there is consistently social security money paid in, I find myself back hustling for myself as either it pays better or I briefly took a job which sucked in the end and cost me money. I just wish I had taken things seriously when I was younger so I wouldn't be thinking about the consistency of a job to pay into social security. I still have my doubts it will continue to be there when I retire anyway.
Unfortunately my biggest weakness is dealing with people.
Eric Witte same here. It’s hard but I force myself to talk to people lol. I don’t hate people i just have social anxiety
People are headache.
You. Are. Not. The only one! Here's what to do about it. Do some research and find businesses where you get paid without dealing with customers, at least directly.
A great example is selling stock photos that you take with your phone or camera. Sign up with one or more of the many stock photo sites (iStock, ShutterStock, etc), find out the types of photos in demand (they tell you), and go take them.
@1234
I'm glad you were able to make it out of the rat race. Thank you for the good luck wishes.
I know how you feel about people. I think that everyone feels that way to some extent. No one ever shared that little secret with me: All people are in it for themselves and all people have ulterior motives.
Looking back on life and the way things have been and what they've become, it makes sense, but I was young. I believed that most people would be caring and helpful. I believed that the shitty people were just the outliers who wanted to watch the world burn, but that isn't the case at all.
Everyone is out for themselves and theirs. It makes perfect sense. Everyone is afraid and everyone is angry. The best most of us can do IS to make ourselves content with our lives. It's what I did throughout my marriage, throughout my childhood. I didn't blame the world for my problems, I just let things be how they'll be. I survived by not worrying about it.
My whole mindset revolved around that notion. I was indifferent to everything and I just wanted to escape people and enjoy myself for a little while. I never learned how to handle the chaos that other people would bring in to my life. I'm still that way for the most part, but I'm beginning to understand things another way.
I've accepted that the reason I can't get on with people is because I don't offer them anything. I don't add value to their lives. People are only out for themselves, they don't care about you unless you give them something. You have to leverage that against people. You have to play the game.
I have always chased acceptance in those around me because of a childhood where I was unaccepted. I held fast through an awful marriage for years, because she made me feel accepted, like I mattered. It has been my greatest weakness.
I realize after years of tormenting myself, that no one is going to accept me, and that is OK. I don't need to be accepted, but I do need to play the game better. I need to play people, the same way they've all played me. The goal isn't to befriend the customer, the goal is to get them to hand over their money. Whatever value you add to their lives must translate into value in your wallet.
This isn't meant to be a pessimistic view of the world, it's just the way it is. You wouldn't be friends with someone who didnt add some sort of value to your life, particularly if you're like everyone else and you see the stranger as the enemy. And money... Money just makes the world go round. The U.S., this is a capitalistic society. Money is the only way up. Money provides healthcare, education, it provides heat and shelter, food, it keeps the lights on. Without money, you can't even get anywhere too far away. Money is the difference between a decent and a shitty childhood for your kids, their education, their food, their shelter, their teeth, their healthcare, the medicine they need, you need. Money is this thing we've made up to keep score, and it is the answer to every problem.
I don't need a person's acceptance, I need their value. I need to trade my value for theirs until I build a web of value around me. I can get whatever I need if I know the right person with the right value.
I think everyone needs to understand this. If you let your emotions get involved, you've already lost. There is a level of cold that you have to face the world with, because otherwise, it will destroy you. People WILL let you down, people will hurt you, people will play you like a fool if you let them. The old Hollywood trope about the emotionally closed-off guy who is pulled out of his shell by his friends, girlfriend, whatever, is damaging. When you completely trust someone, you've exposed your neck, and every single time you do that, the temptation is there to destroy you, sometimes just for the thrill of it, sometimes for the gains.
I'm not where you are, I haven't made it far enough to see an end yet. I'm in debt, I'm jobless and I have nothing to offer anyone. But I do feel like I have a better understanding of what life is, of what people are and what they are capable of.
My goal is to take unrelenting action. Much like you, I've worked very hard for very little pay my whole life. Warehouse instead of factory. I have bled for people that never knew I existed. Because of this, I know I'm capable of hours and hours of work with few breaks, so why not work for myself? Why am I not directing this into my own future? I'm slaving for someone else's vacations, for someone else's growth of value, but not mine. It's rediculous when you stop and think about it.
Unrelenting action will get me there, one way or another. I'm done wasting my time on feeling at ease. Im going to point myself in the general direction of self-sustainment and I'm going to never stop until I reach it. Then I'm going to celebrate, then I'm going to point myself in the next direction and do it again. I want to be in as much pain as possible. I want to do things that scare the shit out of me. I want to be truely exhausted when I go to bed at night, because I worked hard, for myself, for my value.
The more valueable we are, the more we can shape the world as we see fit, and I've got some good ideas for this world.
Good luck in your ventures, whoever read this far 😁. Go get that value.
I hear ya. I'm not afraid to say I hate to socialize because I really do. The society's game rules and standards are just too stupid for some people with a specific mindset, and I'm one of those. It's very funny to see people in life with huge wallets for playing the social game by sticking to those rules, but so miserable in the inside most of the times.
Sooner or later you get to realize that success is not about money, status or validation. It's not about the others. It's about feeling good with yourself and creating something of value with passion, and be rewarded for it to enjoy the things in life that you really like. Life is not about being ass flat at a damn office working your ass off to make someone else rich at the expense of your time and health. (Just because the majority does that, and because the system teaches us that it's the right way to live).
People hate to know the truth. Society works based on hipocresy and it makes me sick, but that's the way it is and the way it will always be.
The system is for the average, and whenever you differ from it, you'll be immediately judged as bad and weird. Wtf does it matter?
Do not be afraid to opt out of the system to enjoy you own way of living, cause the longer it takes you to realize that, the bigger the regrets for not doing it sooner will be.
Never depend on others to feel whole, to make decisions and to feel satisfaction. Human beings are too damn flawed to entrust your life and expectations in them.
Even though I could say it makes me sick to deal with people, I found a way to minimize it in order to get paid for my work, and ya, it sux but you cannot get rid of it 100% but hey it's better than the standard office life everyone else lives with, waiting to be the boss forever 😂 fuck that.
Great video by the way. I hope it helps many ppl make the best decision of their lives.
Thanks for the advice my dude
E-commerce (or brick n mortar for all it matters) takes FOREVER to build up indeed
These are some raw points ... you remind me of me and your revealing some current and future blind corners to avoid. Thanks. subbed and belled and will share
Oh, my, my, my... Free and reliable advice? Who'd have suspected!? This is a great video.
Great video! I quit my 9 to 5 last month and haven't looked back.
0:15 exactly. that's what it feels like. A cage is a nice analogy for typical employment. A cage is nice protection from external factors (less uncertainty) but limits faster growth and no freedom. Working for a much larger, renowned company is just moving to a larger, nicer cage.
Great job. Very professionally presented and it's true but like all things extra work.
I really liked your no nonsense; straightforward and logical video!
Well done!
One of the most honest “Get rich at a reasonable speed” videos I’ve seen
A+ thank you sir 🤙🏻
Thanks 👍
This is a very underrated video. Gave me a good perspective on the topic. Thanks man.
The most sensible information I've heard in the longest about the type of industry with likely success
Thank you so much for stating all of the key points🙂
Interesting strategy to start a bootstrap company first... great vid.
You forgot to tell them if you have a service business the moment you take a vacation, no money is coming in. Remember a service business means you it
Not if you make videos doing the training that can be sold anytime aka the digital product. So if you can't teach your service in a video fond one you can.
@@chriss4365 That's a passive income business
@@FreedomTalkMedia I know, I'm giving the solution to issue of not making money when you take off from your service business. I am actually considering this. I was doing scooter repair but it's not consistent enough.
They have this thing called "employees" I've heard of...I wonder if you could actually hire people to work jobs while you are on vacation...hmmm...not sure if it's ever been done before.
@@MeesterVegas - Having employees is another level of stress and expense (taxes, insurance, calling in sick, etc.) and it doesn't really make sense for many small service businesses.
I know a few people who charge to walk dogs. They cover for each other when they go out of town.
Good work man... enjoyed the real world talk...thanks very much.
Finally, a video with advice that seems reasonable as well as hopeful for those wishing to do something else. And, this has inspired others to leave useful advice in the comments to this video too.
Great video. I was only thinking about passive income streams and calculated that it will take me 2 to 3 years to save money from my current job and for my passive income to start kicking in. From this video, I learned I can leverage the skills I already have to start a service business while simultaneously working on my passive income businesses.
For me the most important thing is freedom of time and place, wanna be in control of all my time and the place I want to be, I will figure out the beach houses and cars when I have this freedom.
Build your service business first. Focus on it, perfect it, then you can make more money in less time. Once you have your income where you need it while working fewer hours, invest the extra time into riskier, but potentially higher yield opportunities.
Awesome info man! Thanks. I'm tired of calling another man a BOSS? I'm a grown man and that's embarrassing. When I start my service based business and have employees I will tell them to not call me boss, call me my my name. Some of these business owners get huge ego's and LOVE feeling power over another man. That being said my life's purpose atleast in the work field is to be my own boss and if I do treat my employees right.
Thanks for your ideas and this organized content
Great content bro!!
You are talking sense, man.
This is not BS. I *ONCE* had my chimney swept, nice young fellow came in in an ordinary car, his equipment was a shop vac and some "chimney sweeping tools". He was courteous and professional, and wore shoe covers, . Half an hour later my chimney was clean, I was happy, and he had $100. This kid wasn't even 25 and certainly didn't need anything more than $500 worth of kit (some of which can easily be home made) and he could be making $50K+ not even working full time. If you're not a troglodyte with no social skills you can make a solid middle income living without student loans and be your own boss.
Clifford Bradford and now that kid is dead from lung cancer
I like this word troglodyte 🤔
Troglodyte. It's what I aspire to be one day..........
@@randysavage2430 only if youre too idiot enough to not wear any protectives. I bet that kid knows that.
I didn't know chimney sweeps existed outside of Mary Poppins
Thank you very much for this great input!
Great video. Thanks for the good advice
I hold a master plumbing license in both Texas and Oklahoma, and from what I’ve seen the guys who are, for the most part, “unregulated” don’t make more money, but they “keep” more of their money. If you’re not having to pull permits, get city inspections, and carry a lot of insurance, not to mention license fees, continuing Ed, etc etc - then yes, you have a lot less going out. Which means you keep more.
He forgot to mention keeping good books, keeping up with mileage on your work truck, and keeping the IRS happy.
Im currently working 7/12 in an alky unit of a refinery which requires me to suit up in a hot rubber suit all day... sure it pays well, but damn Im I miserable, your video just gave me some hope.
Dude this is the best video online
Loved the real life approach. very rare in the internet.
