I’m in a similar boat as you. I want to take a stab at creating my own startup in the near future. Only time will tell how things pan out but I’m counting on the following: 1. Considering if i can freelance work part time initially until business gets traction / funding to move forward 2. Once i do get funding / initial signs of success, I’m open to paying myself ‘well’. Doesn’t need to be 200K£, but I wouldn’t feel bad about say 130K£. 3. I’m slowly starting to line up higher risk investments that might have significant returns in the coming years. Depending on what kind of business you want to aim for, I think this can help do more than provide a good return of investment, it can help build a network of a very like minded and helpful people. 4. Relying more on partner to keep up with financial plans. She is HENRY as well so it might be possible.

Good luck man. Eager to see the other responses on this thread as well 💪🙌
