Final quarter of 2021, I was finally done with my side hustle that really didn't go anywhere. I started a e-commerce webshop for building computers. The reason I stopped the side hustle were the following reasons:
What I learned before:
The reason I joined this forum, is because I would also like to learn from all of you. I got truly inspired by the story of MJ, and some others while I was lurking the forums without an account. I aspire and work hard to become an inspiration for others too one day.
Enough about me, time to dive further in to the forums and start having proper conversation.
See you around,

- There was barely any income, mostly spending money on advertising and running cost
- Prices of computer parts are obnoxiously high, every person is trying to save on the cost of having it build
- I read The Fastlane Millionaire.
- For every new customer that I would acquire I would probably 'earn' about $100,-
- Every customer would take about 1,5 hours of my time to order the parts and construct the pc
- After sales, such as care was insane. Most people that buy a pc, have no clue how they work
- Every extra sale I would get, was 1,5 hours of my time 'lost' to creating the PC.
What I learned before:
- How to build a website
- How to maintain a website and hosting
- How to market a product (My website was 4th for search terms in my country (Netherlands) related to Gaming PCs after a year)
- What to do to rank better
- Web Development
- HTML/CSS done
- Working on JavaScript + extension to React next
