What is your 9-5 job actually costing you? Before I left the corporate world 12 years ago to run my own businesses (and work from home), I was spending: 🕰 750 hours/year commuting to an office. 🚗 13,000 miles/year on California freeways for that commute. ⛽️ $3,000/year on fuel. 💰 About $10,000/year for other expenses like meals, coffee, new clothing, dry cleaning, vehicle maintenance and repair, various services, etc.
Spot on, Larry. Too many "employees" (i.e., inmates in the corporate asylum) not only ignore actual costs of commuting, etc., but choose to set the dollar value of their time to zero. Conversely, those of use who moved into solopreneurship (consulting), realized "capital" gains we'd never considered before. In my case, that was 23 years ago.
