    INTRO 
    I really miss my projects. They run slowly and make little money at the moment. They feel more like hobby projects, sideprojects for fun that make a little extra each year. My wife started a job which brings in more income, but its just more of the same. I got asked again to do an upwork...

    Intro

    INTRO 
    I wanted to see what doing an actual time for money side hustle would be like and recently did an Upwork job. Unsurprisingly, It stressed me the F*ck out, because I already have a job, family and projects going on. So its def a no go unless I make a system to automate this side hustle. And that...

    Put live a crappy mvp/beta. This will be a seo/email powered website. It can beat/take market share from the biggest player by offering a better search experience and faster load time. Expecting to invest max 32 hours per month (each sat or sun) to add content, for max 3 months and then...
