I already knew what is what was when I saw the salt particle

[crimeshetyped]

I saw this on Instagram last night and it is such a great idea! I wanted to share with my followers in the business game ✨

[mixedapocalyptic]

So, let’s stop right quick.

You have to pay your own taxes and have a higher tax liability as a business than with a W2. You need to make more than $100/day. Chances are you are at least in a 30% tax liability, which is meant to be paid quarterly.

Chances are, you’re working more than 8 hours

You have costs of doing business. That means laying for a website, marketing, material, etc… That you currently don’t pay

You are living paycheck to paycheck. Leaving your job after 6 months of barely breaking evem is a setup for financial disaster. Ig you are only making enough toncover your bills, you won’t have a savings and if any month is below what you need, you’re screwed

You need a work-life balance and this doesn’t allow for one. This is you working 7 days a week, 8 hours a day, which means you are working, at minimum, 25% longer just to make ends meet.

You should 3000% budget for selfcare and entertainment. If making ends meets means that you can’t enjoy listening to music, watching a movie, or going out to eat (which, if you are working for that long, trust me, there are going to be TOO many days when you are exhausted, because you will get burnt out, and cooking is not an option), you aren’t earning enough to do just that. Apple Music isn’t why you’re poor or don’t have your own business.

Each and every financial planner and advisor will tell you that planning for survival is dumb af. You won’t have health insurance or money for a co-pay; gas prices fluctuate all the time; utilities fluctuate; rent goes up; emergencies happen; cost of doing business changes; you have to do refunds because you will mess up; you lrevent yourself from scaling up because you can’t afford it.

Stop glorifying Hustle Culture and the struggle of surviving. It will kill you. Y'all see Japan, they literally have people working so hard, they’re dying in their 30s/40s/early 50s from over-exhaustion. You will burn out like this.

I check dude’s Twitter and besides that fact that he doesn’t any concrete strategies that will actually help you live off of a hustle, he doesn’t even have a link to the website or all he says he created for his business, you have to DM for that information (which is alwats a bad sign), he doesn’t say what he actually does (Entrepreneur is not a industry or job title), and he spends a lot of tweets suggesting that Black people are responsible for their own financial ruin which tells me his actual knowledge on finances and the economy is shit. The only thing you can tell is that he does tax returns and taught other people with nothing about whether or not he’s actually good at it.

If you want real advice, stay at your job while you are working on your hustle. Figure out how much it costs to run, how much time you can dedicate to it after work, how much of a profit (after your bills) you’d like to make, what you need to invest in to get it started (website, ads, education, software, computer, etc…), and how much it will cost to scale. You have to do market research. You need a business plan. And guess what? You can do all of that while watching Hulu or Netflix.

Next, you need to start, make mistakes that are probably gonna cost you money then learn how to automate part of the process. That’s a way for that process to keep going after without you directly overseeing it like orders, new clients, shipping, payments. etc… so you can actually start making money while you are working. If you are making access than your bills, don’t quit your other job: put the access into savings, reinvest it into your business, and/or use it to do stuff like lay down debt, but only after you’ve set aside money taxes.

Start saving for a safety net so if money is tight for a month, you’re covered. Then listen to Jay Z: if you can’t buy it twice, you can’t afford it. If you can’t cover your major bills twice over with your business without dipping into savings, you can’t afford to quit yet. That might mean making sure you have enough to cover this month’s bills and rent for next month, just in case.

When you can do that and you get to a point where one or two bad months won’t leave you in the red, THEN you can quit your job because you are actually making enough money to survive AND prosper. Talk to a financial planner or accountant to see what you can do and how to budget now that you no longer have guaranteed income, what you need to pay and when, and ask for advice on budgeting for your business so you can scale it up and grow.

That’s real advice from a real consultant with experience in trying to, failing, and trying again at multiple incomes and who also knows to orice your time, energy, at skills at more than it costs you to use them. For every hour of work I put in, I get 50% above what is necessary for survival, soon to be 75%. I spend 20 hours a week on admin work, which, surprise, you don’t get paid to do. My cost of doing business includes licenses and subscriptions I have to renew monthly, quarterly or early. If I earned to survive, I wouldn’t be able to afford them. Stop listening to these bum ass niggas with out any actually experience or knowledge.

My Interview Behavior

What did I change about my interview behavior? This is not an advice post, this is me assessing myself. 

I Interrupt: I don’t wait to ask questions till the end. It makes the interview stale and the interviewer starts asking you unnecessary questions. “What are your hobbies?” “How was the travel here from your home?” Nope, I didn’t come here for chit-chat. 

What are you expecting from me in 90 days? I don’t ask hypothetical questions during an interview for it gives a maybe notion. “If I’m considered…” No, I’m going to be the next employee. 

What databases does your company use? The interviewers were surprised and gave me the databases they are currently using and I responded with software for CRM and they informed me about a future affiliation. 

What happened to the last person in this position? I asked this question because it gives me an idea of what they are expecting or what they’ve been through. If the former employee was promoted, if they left or if they were fired. My mentor doesn’t agree with asking this question but I don’t want to overwork because of someone else’s mistakes. 

Thank You Notes:  I keep mine short or heavily detailed. If the interviewer told me a lot about themselves, I will remind them. If not, keep it short and sweet. No one ones to read a generic letter. 

I Laugh: In the next company, I don’t want the environment to be stale or too structured. I want to laugh, converse and enjoy my time there. During the interviews, I make the interviewers laugh which makes the interview more harmonious and short. 

I Pay Attention To Detail: If the interviewer becomes irritated because I’m asking questions, I don’t want the job. I like to come to interviews 15-20 minutes early to see where I’m possibly going at. My environment affects my productivity. I need space, light, and smiles. 

Promise: In all my recent interviews, I have told them once I accept the offer I want to be introduced to the team. Put me in the middle of the office, and tell them I’m here. In my last position, no one knew who I was and didn’t care because no one informed the office the other person was fired. Put me in the middle “ Hey guys, I need for a minute. We have recently hired  ________ and she will be part of ________ team. EVERYBODY SAY HIIIIIII!” Icebreaker. 

F giving me mock interviews and snoring whenever I spoke, taught me interviewing is uneventful for both the candidate and the interviewer. I have four interviews this week and if I’m offered a position, I’m going to increase my salary number again because they will be informed another company wants me also.
