      I see a lot of ppl quit their job and just go full time on a side project which I wouldn’t recommend, instead: 👉 build your side project while you have stable income from a job 👉 when the revenue from the side project surpasses your job for 6 months consider quitting

      Alternatively: 👉 have 3 years (!) of savings to continue your previous job’s income and focus 100% on your side projects

          Most importantly: it’s incredibly hard psychologically. The biggest red flag I see is people being excited to go work on side projects full time. There’s nothing exciting about it. You’re entering a world of pain

          Until you have any traction (which can take months to years), it’ll just suck and you will have no idea why you aren’t getting any users

          Many people start out shipping a lot, then usually there’s the 3-months crash. They get depressed, can’t take the load. Fizzle out.

          TL;DR if you see people wanting to quit their job and go build a side project or startup without savings or cashflow: tell them to re-evaluate their choices

          Also even harder if you have a family depending on you! Many of these solo makers on Twitter don’t have that.

          I did precisely this. And would recommend this primarily.

          This is insane. 90% of people don’t have over 10K in their savings.

          Yes, this! Some jobs are exhausting or demanding, and it's tough to find motivation and time to keep working on your side project while you're in those jobs.

          Exactly what I did, although I saved much more than 3 years of savings. Best decision I ever made.

          That's incredible! How in the work did you do that? And how long did it take?

          It took about 3 years,l. I invested very wisely and did extremely well in the markets, in addition to saving about 70% of my income.
