Question for bootstrapped free agents/solopreneurs who’ve been in game a few years: Do you make small-scale invest-in-the-business plans (outsourcing, equipment, subcontractors, interns...) based on surplus you have or do you make plans and then figure out how to pay for them?

Make plans then figure out how to pay for them. It’s the only way to motivate myself. There is never a surplus

This explains 80% of the difference between you and me. The other 20% is explained by: you like cults more than jokes, I like jokes more than cults

True. I generally don’t get jokes. And 95% of the funniest jokes I’ve made, I wasn’t joking. But how do you accumulate a surplus? How do you motivate yourself to work harder than necessary?

I don't accumulate a surplus. I just give up on anything I don't accidentally have a surplus to sustain while I'm interested in it. The pleasures and sorrows of lack of ambition.
