I am 23, graduated college and started a full time job. I realized fairly quick I really prefer working for my side business than my full time job. I’m not a fan of being “controlled” and hate not having control of my life in that aspect. Also grinding away for someone else’s gain.

Last year I mad 60k as a project coordinator in construction in NYC. I also made 40k pre tax on the side weekends and after work some days.

I think it’s in a position to replace my income with full time Effort but want to make sure I’m doing it right with as little bumps as possible.

Any advice?

My business would be handyman/ landscape projects. With time be a one stop shop home services company.

I plan to work part time with electrical/ plumbing/HVAC companies to learn more skills as I go.

    Do not leave your w2 unless your business is making twice as much post tax and consistently.

    If u leave ur W2 before the biz takes off and it fails ur gonna hate ur life when u have to go back to a W2. Everyone who left and had to go back to a w2 knows what I’m talking about.
