I turned 23 last week and my net worth just crossed 30K. I have been out of school and in my current role for almost a year now, and I don’t see myself enjoying or staying in this field much longer. I am eyeing a switch to another industry which will cut my salary slightly but open up more opportunities down the road. With that in mind, I have been trying to find more streams of income, but I’m having trouble finding some that I can get into with little capital. Any ideas?

I watch dogs on the weekends. I normally can I have 1 stay with me and can handle 1 or 2 that are near me, but stay at their homes. I charge 25 /day if they are staying with me over night and 30/day if I leave my house to watch them. It is all through word of mouth. I don’t use rover or other apps that take money from me.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Eventual goal is to move more rural but trying to build to FI. I found a property in my ideal dream location for $280k but it needs work, and can’t Airbnb it. Continued

Will hit 7-figure income for the first time in my life this year. Have about $2M in savings. Almost 40. Worked a lower income job before B-school, then paid down loans and saved aggressively to build up a couple in million in 6-7 years since.
Could MAYBE live off the $2M. But man, I’m tired of working. But now that my income is high, it seems CRAZY to not keep grinding and saving. But could I take a year to reboot? That feels stupid though.
Any advice?!?
