This literally sums up my routine when I first started freelancing 4 years ago.

Good to hear that you don't care about people's suspicion about your job.

No matter how you try to liberate them from the fetter of ignorance, their naivety will still becloud their reasons.

But don't get carried away with your supposedly "big earning."

My advice for you is this: Save as much as you can while you are making the money.

And try to always upgrade your skills, too.

This is because a time will come when the existing skills you have will become obsolete and seemingly irrelevant.

Lest I forget, try to create time for exercise, maybe every Saturday, to prevent atrophy of your muscles and bones.

All the best.

Truth sir. You can't say it more better than this!
Skills is dynamic you have to keep up with trend. Darwin Theory of Survival of the fittest came to mind "Not the most intelligent or strongest animal survives, but rather the animal that can adapt to change or current trend. "

Thanks!

Freelancing is the way! What exactly do you do? Btw I’m in need of a good writer to write crypto related articles. Maybe you could point me in the right direction.

I'm a writer. Copywriting, Seo, ebook, articles.
I've written more than 70articles on crypto this year

I used Grammarly premium to perfect my job too.

You can send me a pm. Let do business

I can relate, especially that aspect where neighbors keep wondering how you take care of your family without going to work. They can't say it to my face, but I know they see me as yahoo father.

Many people don't know yet that the goal post has changed since the advent of the internet. Work doesn't have to be the traditional 9 - 5.

Even my kids often asked why I don't go to work as other kids' father. I know I own them explanations. So I always explain things to them base on their understanding. But, to the rest of the world, they can feed their brains with whatever. Freelancing is bae. Just be dynamic about it. It is a moving train, you must keep up with the pace. Enough said!

You can't say it more. The tide has changed for good. Freelancing is for hardworking people because you got orders to deliver, and and as such you need to keep working to increase your financial account.

To those neighbour's, I believe so far I'm earning legitimately I owe nobody explanation. Hahaha.. Where are they when I have nothing.

Anybody working online is now a yahoo boy. Nigerians sha!

[quote author=COLDMIND post=69371232][/quote]Bro you're just quoting me like a sugar daddy wooing a Slay queen. Talk wetin you want talk.

Actually being a badass freelancer comes with lots of working hours. I can categorically say I'm always working day and night, aside feeding and taking a few hours nap.
Inside my room oo! I'm busy calculating my money , reading instructions of my various clients;because each client has their own taste and style.
Even my friends going to office do seek for financial assistance from me because salary day is still long ahead. What can be more captivating that this lifestyle without a boss.

Daily time table :

WORK in the midnight mostly because that was the best time for me to think.

Sleep from 4am to 9am

Take my brush and bath 9am then Breakfast

Check out Nairaland gist for like 30minutes

Return to my office (My Room, Lols!)

WORK till like 4pm in the evening

At 4pm I stroll out for like 1hour to look for my dear slay queens .. Afterwards eat a lot of food and cool drink.

By 6pm I'm back working again till 9pm

After then, my street slay queen will come disturbing for a match, when they left.. I'll continue my work till midnight.

Then I sleep by 3 or 4am..

The most interesting aspect was that I can decide to travel on a Monday morning when everyone is busy going to office... Lols.. To greet my family . I'm with my Laptop and modem always and I'm good with it .

But my only challenge was that, people mistake me for YAHOO Boys because of the way I check my phone always online; as a fresh young guy without going out early in the morning to office. But I care less about people, so far my bank

This is my life as a freelancer!

BigChest:
you made the right decision my brother... The truth of the whole thing is that to every Innobets or looopy there are 100000 losers, the other day someone committed suicide.. This is someone from a developed country in China where things are working out for them...then think of in Nigeria where things are very bad in the economy.

The truth is the money we feel we need from punting is just out of greed because when you look back on your losses then you'll see that you've even spent way more than that... I mean why not save that 10000 naira or 15000 naira you want to use to stake...because whenever you stake your money on a game that money is as good as gone.

Funnydude I'll like us to be friends... I have stopped punting for life and the earlier people realize that punting is not the way to success the better.

If you have something giving you money. You won't even have time for punting. Like me, I don't even have time to check Facebook now let alone livescore. Always busy with work.

funnynation:
Which business is that?

It's a skill

charles009:
Bros you be baby, my current job, I was flown into PH for the role, two nights accommodation. Over 12 years in elite multinationals and still barely 34years. Now I am bragging

I've been topnotch companies interview too. I repeat nobody will give you thirty K as a job applicant.
Yours is a full staff thing, so it's reasonable but op is framing.

BigChest:
Pls stop punting.. Chiefheywhy lhimeet Innobets and other wankers in this thread.. Go out and hustle on more legitimate and reliable businesses... Gambling is Neva the way..if I dey lie ask funnydude and shollay90

Them won't hear. Just leave them please.. I thank God I took that decision 6months back. My money is now more than enough for me.. I can now eat what I like,give my parents loads of cash.. .Now I work hard, I play hard.
Last week alone I made 40k and saved from my sweat , this week is up to 29k and still counting...

Unlike those periods of punting life.

generationz:

2.Do I have to have knowledge of webdesign HTML, CSS

3 please can you give me a step by step tutorial on how to get vpn

You can but you need to get a mentor too. Someone single handedly taught me.


Not at all



To get a VPN is either you go playstore type in "US free VPN" or and download it. Or you can pay for subscription of the VPN site I drop.. But as a starter use the first option

raphemmanuel:

I also use US free VPN.. You can download it from play store
