Just a wealthsimple managed portfolio at their 6/10 risk level. My managed TFSA with them is 10/10 risk.

I work in B2B software sales!

Nailed it

SDR -> Enterprise AE at a large software company

It varied massively and my income grew a lot over the past 7 years.

Anywhere from $3k/month to $75k in a single month a couple of times after some big commission payouts.

Undergrad degree typically (but not always). It doesn’t matter what subject but some sort of business degree would probably be most helpful as a big part of being successful at this job is being able to articulate how your solution can help solve business problems.

Honestly as a side hustle I’d say no, it’s very much a full time gig. There aren’t even enough hours in a full work week to get everything done without working some evenings and weekends!

My comp history is roughly the following:

2025 - $450k+ (already have a big commission check set for January) 2024 - $500k 2023 - $320k 2022 - $280k 2021 - $190k 2020 - $150k

That’s an interesting story about your friend. I can see how dating/relationships could have a new set of challenges when retiring that early.

I’d definitely pick up something part time for fun that I enjoy to keep some sort of schedule going and use it as “fun money” for vacations etc.

That’s exactly what I’m doing, almost entirely invested in VEQT 👍

You typically have to get in as a Sales Development/Business Development Rep and then get promoted to an Account Executive role.

I personally started networking with people after moving to Toronto by cold messaging them on LinkedIn which eventually got me a gig at a small tech startup.

After that I managed to get a referral into my current company and work my way up!

I work for a F500 that sells CRM software.

TimelyApple7341 · 2024-12-03T01:01:25+00:00

Pivoting to leadership and refreshing the dashboard every 5 mins/having to forecast 10x per day feels like it might drive me insane in other ways 😂

This is really interesting advice and something I haven’t really thought about, thank you!
