Have you considered starting a business?

Alternate idea: Make it so people don’t have to be miserable working themselves to death and still live decent lives

Stfu he ain’t doing that lol

I mean… yeah. The idea appealed to me because it seemed easy/simple. Realistically, I know for it to replace my current job would be far more than I’m willing to do. That grind is the thing I’m looking to avoid!

I honestly have been wondering lately if I could just walk dogs and pet/house sit as my full time job. My sister has given my name to some friends/neighbors, and I have a couple of gigs lined up for the summer. She lives in one of the nicer areas in town, and they all have dogs. But that also feels like a teenager’s first job type deal, not something for a dude in his early 30s. 

 

I told my wife to do this if she wants to quit her 

 

Edit:  pet care is definitely not ideal work for a teenager imo

My wife and I talk about opening a day care all the time. Every one we call in the area has a full waitlist and charge a minimum $1800 a kid. A couple we called charge $2200 a kid. We lack any of the skills to do it but that business is ripe for the picking.

At this point someone edit “dry wall” before business on the topic title

I wonder how much money you’d need to put into that before you start (legal side, provision etc)
