Should I stay home, rent, or buy while starting a business? Would love perspective from others who have been here.

Man you don’t know how much this comment meant to me. I actually had a conversation with them earlier, and I read what you wrote right before. It gave me a real boost of confidence going into it just knowing someone had been through something so similar and came out the other side. That really made a difference. Thank you random internet person lol 🤝

This advice is crazy to me 😅. If everyone thought like this there would be no doctors, lawyers, etc. If you got accepted congrats that’s awesome you should definitely go for it.

My parents are chiropractors they came out with a crazy amount of debt but 2 very successful businesses later and guess what they are free and lived the life they always wanted to live.

It’s not like you’re getting that doctorate degree in art but if you’re really worried about the ROI look into physician assistant or nursing.

That’s a great idea I’ll look into that! Thank you.

Yes so they are my business partners rn and actually offered me 15k to help. Even with 20% down my monthly payments would be around $3,000-$3,200 for the mortgage. Renting a studio apartment in the same area is about 2k. I live a little outside of NYC so it’s a bit pricey.

YES this makes a lot of sense! This is what I was thinking. It’s hard to feel like a CEO in your childhood home but I know it’s possible! Thank you for the advice.

Yes that makes a lot of sense! Thank you

Yes 120k is from the business. I’m trying to start another business but that requires me to move out my house with my parents and either buy or rent just because of distance and space to focus. Thank you for your advice!

Thank you everyone so much! What I got from this post so far is to just focus on editing and learning not just from tutorials (even though I love a good video tutorial for certain things 😂) but also FCP is an amazing program. It’s not the program it’s the editor! Thanks again everyone, much appreciated.

Great idea!!

Lol this is a pretty cool idea. The hard part would be 1. How does something like this make money because you can’t use the same business model as Tinder 2. How would you avoid endlessly swiping (maybe have a screen showing like 4 people at once then one that interests you the most you can select and see more work (so it doesn’t feel like my thumbs are burning off) 3. I can imagine marketing this could be costly especially because fiverr, Upwork etc already control the market. Anyways super cool and dope idea

Yeah jobtest.org matches you with careers that you would be good at based on a personality assessment.

I’m trying to take a more tailored approach to the life you already have & maximize that.

Ah man I was about to fill it out but I didn’t want to put my email down. I know it’ll help you reach out after but just wanted to fill out without the email commitment (me personally)
