Till what...?

Till I’m in Lagos :blessed:

It’s also a countdown for some tasks I have to take care of before then

1. GMAT
2. Rounding out some of my funds
3. New job
4. Skills development etc

Essentially grind hard then take a nice, long deserved holiday

My biggest issue with the 9-5 is that it takes away your time during the most critical part of the day. At least a 7-3 gives you some time in the evening to get stuff done.

I can't say I relate because I haven't had a 9-5 since freshman college summer

but for me getting up earlier at like 4am and getting 6 hours of sleep

Really made a difference in balancing college and my earlier businesses

What were your earlier businesses?

Meeting about the telework policy today. I hope they approved that 3rd day. I've never had a "real" job...like where I actually felt like a valued team member and wanted to be promoted, so low key I'm like no need to start now. Keep working on good financial habits, get paid and skate until retirement. But then you don't actually build any skills that way, other than what you keep yourself busy with. Man, just keep cutting the check and I'll figure out something eventually.

Having a budget is cool until you realize you're going to be broke a long time LOL! Like Damn this shyt is never going to end :russ:

Website built, check it out if you can , I'm still tweaking it and now need to figure out how to attract clients. I registered with the State and obtained an EIN number, have some drafts of service contracts and need to develop a marketing strategy, taking headshots soon. My current real estate boss wants to invest as a partial owner (with no work involved) which is a plus in terms of not trying to control me but I want to actually see how I fare dolo for a year before I let anyone in. I would like to put my own money and earnings into it first.

Depends on what you do too though. Cause I spend a good majority of my day doing more for my business than my actual job :heh:

True. This week I’ve had home repair work I’ve had to do and by the time I get home a lot of stores have closed up.

Website looks good. Did you design it solo or did you have someone do it?

Looks dope.

  • Received the official word. Telework Mon, Thu & Fri starting in October. I'm not mad at all. I worked from home all week and I think leaving out two days is helpful. It's not that I have anything to do at work, but I can mingle and see people I like. Plus the base is pretty.
  • Phone interview on Tuesday for the school system job. I was looking on the site and they have a Data Warehouse Manager role that I could be qualified for...but in like another 6-8 months :sadcam:. I'm not trying to go back to someone telling me what to do. I'm too old for some piece of shyt ass boss. I want to BE the piece of shyt ass boss. :lolbron: Sike, I think I would be a fair boss, but I'd definitely give preferential treatment to black people and I'm hooking someone up with a job for sure. That's why Jesus doesn't want me to be a boss.
  • A gross salary of $125k would be nice. I'm afraid to ask for it for some reason.
