    I think you should hold on to it until the business gets off the ground, I get that the job is stressful for you but it’s rare for someone to get a business up and running quickly.

    Unless you have connections that can bring money fast, your gonna have to stick to that job or find another one until your business gets off the ground.

    Start a business helping small/medium business owners manage their customer relationships, generate leads, create an online presence, create online storefronts, create sales processes, track sales metrics, report on data, etc.

    How do you plan to do this if you quit and dead your income?

  • I’m not tryna rain on your parade, but it’s just not logical to quit a job with absolutely no backup plan in this economy.

    Also I say you don’t need a job because the business world is WILD!

    The big 4 does consulting, so they get hired to do work for other people. The big 4 don’t take contracts unless they get a certain minimum amount of money. Let’s say 200k.

    If you can’t afford to spend 200k+ on doing something like creating a website that links to and inventory system and a crm system. You find someone who will do the job for less.

    This has a trickle down effect until you get people who will pay ANYBODY to build a website for them for like 5k.

    Let’s say you’ve been making websites for years and it takes you a week to make a site.

    If you find 4 people like this.

    That’s 20k a month.

    Now the hard part is find 4 people like this. And that’s why marketing departments get all the money.

    How do you plan to do this if you quit and dead your income?

    It’s pretty low cost. I mean all I really need is time, a computer, internet and clients. The need is out there. I truly can take on small ass jobs just to cover startup costs while I don’t have money.

    I can live with my family too.

    Like my only real responsibility right now is work. So if I put up with the lower social standing I can grind out the years where I don’t have any money until I can figure out how to get a steady stream of clients or a few high paying ones

    Like most of my time for I imagine the next 6 - 12 months is finding people, trying to do business with them, digital marketing, and keeping my skills sharp.

    I’ll succeed. I’m just doing what I do now independently. Just gotta market, find clients, etc. I started out independent contracting at first, I’m just gonna start an llc and go full time.

    It’s looking time consuming and expensive so I’m gonna try to get another job to supplement the startup costs.

    what kind of company are you truly going to start

    I hate my job I’m sick to my stomach everyday literally. I’ve been spitting up blood for months. Think it just stopped but I stopped spitting so idk. I hate sleeping because that fasts forwards the time between me not working and me working.

    I remember writing some code in 2020 and in the code we had to put our name and a comment saying “property Company X” in the comments. I worked hard as f*** on that code and someone else owns it. My last job owns all my solutions too. I don’t own what I produce and it eats at me. Like I feel like I sold my soul for salary. Because, working for these people doesn’t bring me fulfillment and they own everything I worked on. If I work extra I don’t get paid extra and extra is the standard. Like if these things I’m making is driving revenue, I’d like some of that revenue. Or I’d like to be able to take what a did and sell it myself.

    Tired of seeing grown men and women with children kiss up to their boss. That s*** kills me bro. Seeing grown men and women who look broken inside. That s*** kills me bro. Seeing grown men and women who look like and they desperately want to do something different but can’t bc they gotta feed the kids. Kills me bro. My company said some dude with with the company and was trying to get promoted for 20 years and got promoted ONCE!!! In year 19!!!!!! Seeing grown men and women who gave up. Kills me.

    Every job I’ve been to have been slightly racist (except forever 21 lol), and I’m tired of making these niggas money. They don’t even pay you a pension!

    If I fail I fail. I’m at the point where I don’t care if I embarrass myself or fall on my face. I gotta create something that no one can take from me. I can’t live like this anymore. Like I’m tired of feeling sick. I should been doing this since 2020 I already was contracting. Maybe that’s I feel crazy my intro to full time work was consulting

    Idk man. I feel like these niggas took my balls bro. These big corporations own my work, tell what to do everyday, where to be everyday, what I can say, and disrespect me. For a paycheck? Ima f***ing log out

    I wish that rather than everyone investing all their energy and emotion into the pursuit of becoming their own boss , with the effective goal of eventually just becoming someone else’s boss , we would collectively invest that time and effort into finding solutions to the problems of wealth inequality and stolen profit via wage slavery

    Don’t quit unless you fasho got motion. Or if you living with your parents rent free or some. Quitting on the fly nowadays is mad risky.

    please stop appropriating street slang into your legal citizen , civilian ass lifestyles . if you are receiving a paycheck in exchange for labor you are providing a company , that is not motion , nigga . If you can’t stay in the house all day and get money by selling d**** or recording songs that a label is willing to fund your costs of living in order to obtain said music ; if the mystery involved in gang members who do none of the above yet still will make periodical appearances on Instagram holding 15 racks on their shoulder next to their ears eludes you , then you is not having motion , mf .

    Live life on your terms. If you're young, don't be afraid to fail (never be afraid for that matter). You're going to die someday, so might as well try everything you set your mind to.

    I'm communist as f*** but we need f***ing money to live dude. A guy starting a business is not going to be able to start a revolution.

    I hate to say it but youre just sounding like a liberal (soc dem at best) who wants band aids on the system, we have to wait until it collapses. There are no solutions until it fails completely, and currently the only "solutions" to be accepted are going to be mandated by the elite capitalist class in order for them to benefit the most.

    It's pretty f***ed up in my opinion when I see communists going after average joes trying to just run a little start up to survive in this gross ass system. Why are you pitting the working class against the working class? This isn't what anti capitalism is about, it should be about all of the working class uniting against the immoral ruling elite class manipulating us to fight each other instead of them.

    Your comment is quite literally just the "you hate capitalism yet have an iPhone curious" take too unfortunately
