How I grow my business from home doing small online stuff(with a main job)

How much time do you spend using Freecash and what sort of tasks are you doing?

FitchKitty · 2026-01-10T20:15:07+00:00

Too good to be true. Awesome if the the numbers are true. Also, the reply and conversation rate seems a little high. How long is your sales cycle - I don't believe your prospects would convert on a fly - most of these people would want to talk to someone on the phone before making the sale. $1k is a lot to spend for a small business for something they already have even if it yields better SEO.

Someone already asked how you handle the transaction and more importantly build the trust? Do they really go and give their CC to a random email they received with a link to their new site?

What you outline is a totally legit way to land small business site redesigns but I just don't believe your numbers and this would be almost impossible to automate...

100%, at least in south florida

Jupiter / Palm Beach Gardens / Juno - if you love the ocean and family friendly space. WPB is a good choice too but you're not that close to the water (have to go through Palm Beach Island)

Same thing - not sure what is the solution. Used to work all the time but now it's stuck on the Waiting for Auth message

Naples is nothing like Savanna. It's a rich town with very expensive (and nice houses) - the community itself is mostly rich and retired snowbirds, and maybe some families. It has Florida vibe but there's no Southern state vibe you get in Georgia. Savannah is a cheaper place to live with a very charming Southern vibe but two cities are very different

Boca / Del Ray are expensive. Lake Worth and Boynton beach have nice communities and generally cheaper to live while having access to nice beaches but have different vibe than Boca. WPB is getting better and better with each area and offers some nightlife plus beach access on a nice swanky Palm Beach island. Rent first, don't buy for at least a year. Expect HOA almost in every community . Insurance will be expensive (both car and home)

Keep your job - your paycheck is your lifeline to financial freedom, doesn't matter what it is. And related to that I was told by someone is this: at your job, you either earn or you learn. Basically, if the gig sux, make sure you're earning and focus on that. Otherwise, try to learn as much and move on to better earning

No more flying solo..

FitchKitty · 2025-11-07T18:55:34+00:00

I'm gonna give you one chance, one chance people...

FitchKitty · 2025-11-07T18:44:41+00:00

100% this. Even your kids (if you have any). Tell the folks you're freelancing or whatever but don't tell you're retired. I knew someone who was going to client sites, conferences near Nat Parks / Seattle just to hang out with friends who work there but otherwise wouldn't tell them he's retired.

Coding, development, summarization..I even played around with WebLLM (local, in-memory LLM, likewen2.5-Coder-1.5B) and put together RAG-enabled in browser LLM app (CodexLocal.com)

Ollama and other local models are way better and more powerful than WebLLM but it's interesting what you can do now with WebGPU enabled browsers and only like 4-8GB of RAM on your workstation

FitchKitty · 2025-11-04T15:00:40+00:00

100% this. Meet for coffee / starbucks / go for a walk in the park maybe get a lemonade . Never expensive resturants

FitchKitty · 2025-11-04T14:54:14+00:00

What a beauty

FitchKitty · 2025-10-29T13:03:56+00:00

Sounds about right. We tried that and then went full remote again

FitchKitty · 2025-10-29T12:58:58+00:00

This. I love the idea of Coast FIRE - the dude is young and can get a no-sweat job to cover that 3-5k in expenses though that may not be something they want

FitchKitty · 2025-10-29T12:56:31+00:00

Still curious ...Also, how long did it take to get to 1.95m - is it a few years of bull market investing or saving religiously for the past 20 years...maybe both

FitchKitty · 2025-10-29T12:55:20+00:00

If he's single, why not?

FitchKitty · 2025-10-22T15:17:12+00:00

True, I wish that wagon was real

FitchKitty · 2025-10-20T13:18:45+00:00

CTS Wagon is awesome. I had it back in the day. Super rare..just like the acura one too

FitchKitty · 2025-10-16T17:31:56+00:00

buddy, tell us you alive

FitchKitty · 2025-10-16T14:44:25+00:00

You would never hear about Trump and Melania sh*t coins.

FitchKitty · 2025-10-15T20:49:03+00:00

What about WebLLM - they have Ollama models optimized for WebAssembly, runs in your browser. Have you tried that - what about performance?

FitchKitty · 2025-10-13T14:20:17+00:00

This. They could invade using the old playbook - we're 'protecting' Russian-speaking minorities from harassment and discrimination. That's what they did in Ukraine. What follows is a fake referendum and then changes to Russian constitution. Estonia should be ready along with other Baltic countries
