If my motivation was money I would cash in on the reputation I've already built and go and land a Silicon Valley salaried job somewhere.

Sponsorship from my monthly newsletter doesn't come close.

Seriously, do you have any idea how much money I'm leaving on the table right now NOT having a real job in this space?

Being a blogger is wildly financially irresponsible!



Lol this argument doesn't hold weight.

Do you really want to be an employee? Lets see what your reservation price is first.

Im pretty sure you'd need to be paid a lot to forgo having control over your time and so on. Lets keep it one-hunnid.


That's why I haven't got a job: I enjoy the freedom of working for myself, and I have enough of a financial runway from a previous startup acquisition that I can afford to do my own thing for a few more years.

At some point I'm going to need to get back to earning more than I spend.
