we already talked about this a bit......you think about what we talked about?
 
If things aren't tough at first you aren't doing it right. Rough patches are there to shape you not discourage you. So don't let that drag you down @konceptjones

That's also why I haven't jumped in yet. I recognize that and I want as little turbulence as possible when I finally decide to take flight.

For other reasons stated im just afraid.

Just being honest with myself,but i am working and investing in my vision daily while i work this job to support my family and personal lifestyle.

Its a lot to give up but eventually im going to bet it all.

I invest in the stock market heavy and knock on wood but I made a fucking killing this year. I mean the market had a historic fucking year and I damn near doubled my money.

Bought my first house, fixed it up, and im gonna flip it in a year or two and looking to realistically triple my money there too.

Looking at a rental property very seriously to jump into in 2018.

Business doesnt just mean owning a company anymore. I consider myself to be a business and looking at ways to increase my income streams. The plan has been to add a new stream of income while building up the ones I already establisbed every year since 2015.
 
I'm actually a believer in the 'Everything ain't for everybody' mantra. Gary V. says that shit all the time. 'Being en entrepreneur ain't for most people. For most folks, being #12 at FB is better than being #1 as the CEO of your own company.'.

The stress, the responsibility, the fact that it kills your work/home life balance in most instances, etc. The only issue is that not enough people recognize that fact.

getting the right position at work can kill the work/home life balance
 
Stock investments is definitely in my 2018 bucket list. I've deprived myself for far too long.

Nah shorty live on Harvey st, I think it's one block away from Haines actually. I don't know the cross street shit live, I just drive up Lincoln Dr, take right on Harvey and her apartment is a couple blocks up. My barbershop on Germantown Ave and Seymour. Even my gym ain't far. You know the plaza on Roberts and Fox St. with the Shop Rite and Wingstop and Wendys.. I be there every day..

I don't even understand Philly gangs.. where I'm from they bang crip and blood. I just know it's no colors.. only gunshots
 
Just to play devils advocate, because I’m all for starting your own if you want to, but I know people who thought that that was the dream and did it, only to find out that they hated being consumed by it 24/7 and were happy to go back to just clocking out at 5 or whatever and having the business as a whole be someone else’s problem

Cuz niggas ain't tryna quit their 9-5 and give up the stability of that guaranteed paycheck and put their faith in themselves, but risk falling on their faces and not being able to support themselves, their family or cop the new Js.

And cuz niggas ain't willing to KEEP their 9-5 and work like a dog on their own business with whatever time they have left in the day cuz they'd rather be spending those hours elsewhere.

Simple.

i hear you.

i have started so many new businesses since selling all my shares and other businesses like 2 years back.

i was recently told by a developer that i have a entrepreneurial eye that even most americans he dealt with dont.

i heard that many times. i see money in everything an how to get it.

and while i know this is my gift...i want to know why others dont start they own shit.

Cuz everything ain't for everybody

besides there'd be too many chiefs & not enuff indians

This is really it. Everybody ain't meant to nor have the ability, time, and/or resources to start their own business.
