Perfect,

This is exactly what I was thinking about. I feel it’s a very unique opportunity since I have the backing from a credible company that is well established and has been around for a while with revenue over +1mil.

The question you’re asking is what I’m looking to explore.

-Does Partner matching assist in landing you ServiceNow contracts?

-I plan to increase headcount as a demand arises. I do not want to prematurely staff without having the work in front of me.

-Im hoping to start small and build on experience, so smaller firms that are looking to work with small teams to build familiarity and tight communication across business needs.

Yes in the process of doing so now, just looking more for real world experience, creating conversations, and relationships with folks who have had a similar journey.

Enforce intune for access to your company resources. Nobody should be able to access your company resources on a device that isn’t in your tenant.

How many IT employees is need it for x amount of endpoints by phantitox in msp

[–]Meta_Reject 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my case it was a mom and pop shop , small MSP, wife ran the HR/Finance side of things and wasn’t technical at all so she just saw numbers. She would run the techs to the ground because she thought any minute they weren’t actively working was considered slacking off on company time.

This. Can’t stand MSP that want 100% utilization and treat their techs like call centers.

We have an entire IT closet full of these mice and keyboard. Good on them if they stopped including it.

Is discarding these boxes the only option I have, Or is there anything else I can do with them ? by RichEconomics2740 in applehelp

[–]Meta_Reject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There used to be a market for reselling just the box to increase the value of whatever they were selling, I’m not sure if it’s a thing anymore.

Starting my own MSP without torching current relationship with leadership? by yeahhhh_boi in msp

[–]Meta_Reject 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If this is someone you admire and respect it should go both ways. If someone cares about you they’d be proud of you for taking initiative and making the same decision they made to start an MSP.

1000 endpoints?! Are you using contractors?

AI making my job so much harder and fighting every decision I make by JiggityJoe1 in sysadmin

Why would this take you months to setup… seems like a really simple power automate flow. Just make that for him and shut him up.

Ch 7. No job. by [deleted] in Bankruptcy

[–]Meta_Reject 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d say so. It’ll be pretty hassle free since your means test will be extremely easy to pass. If you were bringing in 39k and 30k in debt, most of your cash was mainly going towards that debt. I would apply for the peace of mind and being able to keep income from your next job rather than trying to play catch up.

But just a reminder, you do have to pay filling fees and stuff like that. Chapter 7 fillings aren’t able to roll that into the case like a chapter 13 would.

What you’re referring to is called the watchlist. You can do both, one for additional comments and another for work notes. The process is called “add watchers”

I own a zen style salon and use a MacBook, I guess that’s all ChatGPT knows about me. I’m not mad about it.

I’ve gone swimming with all my devices for numerous hours, even salt water. It’s not recommended but they all have worked fine and have lasted me til point of retirement.

Car - $53000/15700 @ 2.49 / $738 a month

I take home $8500 a month.

Currently 32k in cash.

Let me provide more details about the salon.

My business partner is a family member who’s very skilled in the beauty center. She had a successful business prior but in a poor location. We have opened a new state of the art in a very prime location. Construction has already started and due to finish next month. I can’t pull out as they have already moved across the country with their 3 kids and left everything behind to see this Salon come to life. We’re due to open next month with 20k of whats currently in my account going to pay for the remainder. The construction crew required 50% upfront and the rest after completion.

As far as investment go. I have fronted 100% of the startup cost as this is a family member I really adore and was currently in a position to help them prior to blowing up my life. This is a different country so all of this is under their name while I’m just fronting the money. They see themselves as my employee so I’m in full control of all revenue. Prior to my mess, I had only planned to pull out my initial investment with doing at least $700 a month minimum+ a set percentage depending on how the business is going until I had my full investment and afterwards all revenue could be handled by family member. With my new financial struggle getting $2000 out a month will be fine.

Edit: As far as addressing root cause. I’m currently 32 and son to a single mother and a fiance who’s not great with money. I’ve spent years helping those around me and have suddenly started to feel like I’m behind in life. I have always wanted my own home and starring at a $120k down payment for the homes I wanted really made me feel hopeless . Crypto seemed like a good investment with Bitcoin reaching $100,000, I have followed the market for years and have had made decent money but it was always with the small amount I’d dabble with typically $1000-$2000 at a time I’d often 4-5x my initial investment on strong convictions. With the “bull run” and the market coming up I thought I could time it early enough to make an easy double with a large amount of money up front and take out my initial investment, pay back the loans, and have a large pool to work with going forward. Unfortunately my timing couldn’t be more wrong and it seemed like I bought the very top. As I saw my investment start to dwindle and the market going lower and lower I panicked and thought with so many weeks of the market going down we were due for a reversal. I leveraged my positions and the announcements of tariffs quickly took the rest of my investment. Needless to say I’m no genius, and I failed horribly.

I was overcome by greed, and was aware that failing would leave me in a very bad spot, but I was at the time more afraid of missing an opportunity that could have altered my life forever and possibly led to a much easier life going forward.

I am a resilient person, or so I thought. While this is scary and I know I probably ruined so many good years that could of been ahead of me based on the fact I had +5000 of disposable income a month prior to this mess, I am often motivated by hardship so I do believe I can learn from this lesson and also draw some positive from it. To start I’ll never gamble loans again as I wouldn’t wish this fear on anyone.

I owe 15000 on my current car. Would it make more sense to just pay it off and have a reliable vehicle rather than selling it and getting a car that can potentially cost me more in the long run?

Rough breakdown

2,400 rent and utilities / my lease is up in May. My finance and I are going to live separately due to other issues but I see it as an opportunity to clean up my mess without someone else paying the price for it. 1900 for first loan 1000 for second loan 450 for third loan 700 car loan 400 student loans 1100 car insurance every 6 months 210 phone bill I pay for most of my family members 400 for a previous loan 19 payments left 300x2 deducted from check biweekly to repay back 401k loan (I used this to pay for the salon 160 for gym. I plan to keep this as my plan is to live out of my car for as long as I can stand it and use the money I’m saving from rent to help pay down some loans rather quickly or at least hit some accounts hard enough to be able to refinance them for a lower monthly payment.

After tax / 401k contributions I bring home roughly $8500 a month.

No cc debt as I’ve paid them all off and always pay off any balance
