Hey what’s up everybody?! So where do I start…
Well, not that long ago I was one of those kids that was high on the American Dream.
I’d graduated college with my Master’s in Accounting, had an amazing office job, and made more money than I knew what to do with…
But like most people in that situation, even though I acted like I was living high on the hog, deep down I absolutely hated what I was doing (Commercial Lender that was screwing people over) and after 5 years of doing this…
I finally self-sabotaged myself and got fired (mouthing off to a “big wig” while drunk).
This then sent me into months of feeling like a sorry little sad sack, but after finally running out of money and being forced to figure something else out, I came across the concept of freelancing and haven’t looked back since.
The first few years I was really just trying to figure everything out, but after I did, I quickly realized that everybody has a freelance skill in them and that’s really the main message I spread now.
To give you a good example of this, here’s one of my most popular articles:
8 Insanely Profitable Skills You Can Learn For Free (And On Your Own Time)
And I look forward to “meeting” everybody on here!
