When you can earn 3,000 or 5,000 dollars a day, you will suddenly find that you cannot make a big fortune through hard work. You can only make food and clothing. Making a big fortune depends on brains, vision, and opportunities.

Working can only provide food and clothing. If you want to get more wealth, you need your brain, vision, and opportunities.

For example, the salary you get from part-time work is just enough to support your family, because most jobs have salary levels that are designed by capitalists, and there will not be much improvement.

Therefore, what you want to break through the bottleneck of wealth freedom is to start a business and become a shareholder of the company. Only then can you achieve a turnaround and counterattack.

Of course, everyone’s choices are different. Some people think that being able to maintain basic daily expenses is enough, while some people feel that if they go out to make a living, they must make a breakthrough to live a worthwhile life.

As for the kind of person you want to be, it depends on your own choice first.

Ordinary people, devote all their time to work, earn a salary of several thousand dollars a month, go to work diligently every day, later marry a wife and have children, and raise the children through all kinds of hardships. Let the children find jobs, go to work, and continue to be screwed. This is a completely endless cycle.

For example, when I used to work in a company, I was exposed to wind and rain every day. I looked glamorous, but I was just a social worker who got up early every day to squeeze into the subway. Sometimes I had to work overtime until midnight and take a taxi home. When I woke up the next day, we had to continue living this way.

Thinking about wasting almost every day in a cubicle in exchange for a meager salary, and having to pay off car and house loans in the future, without freedom for the rest of my life, this kind of life is not what I want.

If you want to take root in a big city later and rely on salary, it is a long way to go.

Once I figured this out, I no longer had any illusions about working part-time.

When I saw that on the Internet, you can still make money by doing projects, and I usually try to do various projects and make both big and small money, this made me see another possibility.

The most important thing is that you can find your sense of accomplishment and value here.

Of course, when many people talk about entrepreneurship, their thinking remains on the concept of physical operation and heavy asset investment.

This concept is still a bit backward. When you come into contact with the Internet, you will no longer think so.

Starting a business today does not necessarily require opening a shop or renting a space to start a business. It requires a large investment of capital, and it is not something ordinary people can afford. If you are not careful, you will lose money.

Today’s Internet infrastructure is already very complete. As long as you are ambitious and motivated, you can register an account first, then start operating and earn the first pot of gold in your life.

When you earn money other than your first salary, you gain confidence, and you can copy and enlarge it later to earn more money.

Of course, making your account and working for yourself is equivalent to starting a business. It will be very hard in the early stage, but the rewards for this hard work are also huge.

Once you seize the opportunity, you might earn someone else’s salary in a year in one month.

When you experience this feeling of collecting money, you will no longer think about earning a salary from work.

In the end, working can only provide food and clothing. If you want to earn more money, you have to look for opportunities on the Internet.

I hope you can make your first pot of gold on the Internet as soon as possible and explore more possibilities.
