When I was 12 my dad put the family savings into a small restaurant.
He did not quit his job to do it.
He kept working 12 hour security shifts. Days and nights.
Then he went straight to the restaurant until his next shift.
For two years I barely saw him.
One day I asked him why. The restaurant was already making money.
He said the job gives us stability. The restaurant gives us optionality.
He was not going to let go of the safe thing until the other thing was proven.
Two years later he quit the job. Focused on the restaurant fully.
A few years after that he sold it and retired.
Both my parents are retired now. Everything paid off.
I think about that a lot.
He did not bet the house. He built the second thing on the side.
Quietly. While the job kept the lights on.
That is exactly how I tell people to do this.
Keep your job. Build the page and the list on the side.
45 to 90 minutes a day. Prove it first. Then you have a choice.
Tuesday I am walking through how the whole thing works.
