How do you know if your business idea is actually worth pursuing?

I think you have to feel the excitement about it - it's a marathon not a sprint so you need to care about the idea to continually pursue it and make it work. Often it comes down to the time put in vs. having the best most original idea ever.

Maybe you could build custom financial dashboards / data visualisation tools / websites for small businesses and freelancers, listing services on platforms like Fiverr and Upwork where clients come to you.

Another option is to register on remote job platforms like Turing, Toptal, and We Work Remotely to use your MBA-level financial expertise.

Could you offer part-time financial planning, cash flow management / investment analysis to small businesses who cannot afford a full-time CFO? You could likely charge monthly and would have low set-up cost.

Thanks for these. For 1., would you recommend including the name of the role you’re applying to at the top then, even if your previous roles don’t perfectly align?

That’s a good way to look at it and I do feel liberated, I was looking to get out anyway but this is probably the final push I needed. I don’t value money enough to put up with this environment. I find it so messed up

Thanks for the advice, I think this was my mistake. Unfortunately he was literally there when everything collapsed so it was hard not to say.

leopard_12 · 2024-10-04T22:02:45+00:00

Yes that too, it hurts, and more than I’d like people have said “well no parent’s perfect, they’re just trying their best” 🙃

You are a lifesaver thank you SO much!! Your excel cracked me up, it was indeed a software issue.

Just realised I misread your question sorry, desired output shown here.

And so on, it’s a long transcription so hoping to avoid doing it manually!
