Dropped out of a four year program to start a business which has become my livelihood, have been taking business classes on the side since I started and I’m almost done! I’ve learned more from the actual business, but I wanted the piece of paper as well, probably to be the first male “graduate” on my mom’s side, the whole American dream, yada yada.

How I did it: I started by organizing my finances and putting together a monthly budget, literally every category including groceries, clothing, eating out, coffee, utilities, rent, car insurance, gas, car maintenance, emergency savings account, etc. I then called and stopped by various apartment complexes within my budget to see what I liked and what was convenient.

How I did it: Just paid more than the monthly payment by various amounts between 50 and 150 dollars. Paid it off in 3 years instead of 5!I just made sure I could toss some extra cash at it, even though it doesn't always feel like it made a difference, over time I saved a few thousand dollars in interest alone.

How I did it: Filled out the necessary legal documents with my state, opened up a bank account for the business, used financial software to track all my information and started working on getting new customers. Read how I did it…

I usually end up yawning or laughing when what I really want to do is cry! I usually laugh so hard that I do cry… but still.
I also probably internalize a lot of that crying….
Currently looking for the right people that are interested in growth more than a big paycheck right now. Looking for an e-commerce pro and someone experienced in managed services.
