Hi everyone,
It has been a few years since I have been active on this forum. I have read the book as well. Here is my situation - Employed at 36 in the localization industry - pull in an 80K base with commission I'm landing at $125k on a good year due to commission caps. I'm technically employed full time but probably spend 20 hours a week actually working. I work from home so the rest of the time, I have been sending resumes and not exactly making the best use of my time. I'm at the point where I have a decent gig, but I need and want to start side gigs in order to make passive income. I need more money - A contact of mine has an opp to sell credit card processing systems to new businesses, with however much commitment I want to commit to the gig. Another contact has an opp to sell advertisement sales to retail businesses as well. Ultimately, It would be super interesting to hear about someone that may have been in a similar situation to myself, who was able to retain their employment while they spun up some passive income opportunities and were able to sustain and pass income at 200k and beyond.
Thank you,
