    Big corp vs Startup if your end goal is to work for yourself?

    Working at a startup isn't always what it's meant out to be. Do your due diligence on the team, idea and product before diving in. Otherwise you might end up working crazy hours, for crap pay, without actually learning anything.

    Big corp vs Startup if your end goal is to work for yourself?

    Work for a big corp. Domain knowledge and industry-specific insights are needed in order to spot opportunities. Use the time at the big corp to accumulate funds, work on your side projects and train yourself to look for opportunities.

    I've always wondered how this can be interpreted if you take a number of successful entrepreneurs such as elon musk, richard branson, larry page. This model doesn't capture that. I don't believe that richard branson truly loved the aviation business and thought that he was good at it. He saw...

    Scientist - How do I get out of the slowlane while still doing what I love?

    SIDE HUSTLE SLOWLANE 
    Bluntness incoming. These venn diagrams look great but are complete BS. Try applying it to any successful entrepreneur you know: Elon Musk, Zuckerberg, Ray Kroc etc etc They didn't sit down one day to find that perfect intersection. Also, that which you've studied or the job you're currently...

    Sold my $30,000 p/mth website for $650k - My "near wealth experience" taught me this--> [MP3]

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Great post. Repped++. Especially love the quote: Wealth isn't measured by how much money you have. Wealth is measured by how far you are from financial stress. The only thing that I'd add to the formula is that your income shouldn't be 100% tied to the number of hours you put in.

    Ethereum Transaction Growth Chart ICOs are used as a way to raise funds for a startup, based on cryptocurrencies. The currency is directly linked to the startup product or service. You're confusing cryptocurrency with fiat money.

    2012 - Microsoft demoted me. I cried in my car. I'm not ashamed...

    Be glad. I've chased promotions for years only to realise that promotions only marginally increase income but significantly increase the strain on your own personal time. Time you should be putting to use to free yourself from the rat race.

    Some quick observations: Your brand screams "MALE" yet one of the 3 offerings you have = bath bombs. The look and feel of your logo is high-end yet you're selling fairly mainstream products. Your "win a free bath bomb"-popup should just ask for email instead of first name, surname and email...
