  • 1- start an llc (pretty easy can be done online in about 20 min) 2- get jobs

    Part two is the tougher one. I’ve read that a lot of programmers are selling their services on fiverr (a pretty big freelancing site) to fix AI slop.

    There’s also dice.com (Though this may be more consulting/contracting than freelancing). You can filter by and get corp-to-corp contracts. These mean your llc gets paid, and then you pay yourself from that. The pay for a corp-to-corp is typically higher than a W2 because everything is included, and you have to deal with it all. Like benefits, bonuses, vacation days, supplies, etc.











  • I’m in a much better place at 43 than 33. My finances are better, my kids are older and much less maintenance. I have way more free time now. I remember fighting for 30min one or twice a week to game for a little bit and feeling guilty after (had 4 kids under 10). Now? I game almost every day if I want. I actually get a little bored sometimes. It’s luxurious. My body doesn’t feel much different either. Bit slower healing, but I love my 40s. Don’t make me go back.


  • The assumption that washing toilets and cleaning dishes can’t be a high paying job. If nobody wants to do it scarcity will drive up the salary. The problem isn’t the job, it the minimum wage attached to the job making it undesiarable.

    If you pay a plumbers hourly rate to clean toilets, I can guarantee you people will be lining up to be toilet cleaners.
