Day 141 - Preparing for my worst nightmare https://golifelog.com/posts/preparing-for-my-worst-nightmare-1621579128772
Most would be familiar with how bullish I am about self-employment, indie hacking and entrepreneurship. I subscribe to the school of thought that eventually, everyone will be a creator in a creator economy. In fact, it’s already happening, and pushed forward further by COVID-induced remote work. That future is already here, just not evenly distributed.
But looks like before that dream can be realised, I might very soon need to get back into employment. Regretfully.
Freelance gigs are still non-existent. The little bits and bobs of income from my side projects are small change, not enough to sustain a livelihood and a family.
I really want to continue working on them—Lifelog included—but ironically I might now need to get a job to sustain them. At least until this pandemic blows over. Which could mean 2-3 more years, optimistically speaking.
