Forgetting the women issue for a minute, the city has gotten so expensive that even if you are a top manager, you're going to struggle to house and educate your kids. That kind of shit really rolls down hill.
Full time + side gig that covers your monthly expenses. Find the magic number,$3K, $4K, $5K/month for monthly expenses(rent+bills, etc). Find that number and make that your goal. Hit that goal and keep it going, and bank the rest. Your nightlife may take it a hit.
Big data is the hottest trend in business. How can you productize that expertise?
Right now I'm hoping that using blogging as promotional tool that I can start to set up a side consulting gig. Also, I need to consolidate my skills in IT and Stats. There are some gaps that just need to get filled.
The trick that I am trying to figure out is getting it so that I do not have to commit to giant projects that effectively make me an employee of my client. There doesn't seem much point of being an entrepreneur if I'm completely dependent on one customer. I might as well just be an employee in that case.
