I mean are you hurting for cash though....

What's more important a job you love or making 6+ figures being miserable.

Plus you can always do temp or part time work during the day or offseason....

I can make roughly around $300-500 a day as a contractor....
I usually stop at $250......

Why? because fukk giving up my free time to make more money. I like the security from money, if I have to manually work long mundane hour for it. Then it's not worth it the time invested which includes commuting to, from and through traffic....

I'd rather work 6-7 hours then be back home chilling.

I'm very intrigued by passive income though. I love the thought of making money without even leaving the crib.

Just started working as a train operator in nyc for the mta.

34.16 a hour base salary :ahh:

Props to u homie. I took that test back when kevin durant was still with OKC. 3 years later finally got my test score and i got a 92. Maybe in 2024 ill get called for an interview

:russ:

I make 75-85k here in NY for a union lab but starting to study for these certs to have something to fall back on if these companies get cute and try to cut OT,add work, etc. if i can get a pt help desk gig for 15-20k ill be happy with that plus the experience and chance to grow on the IT side

passive income is the key but so is mental health..this job I have now is the first where having good mental health is part of the company culture. Year and a half here and I haven't felt any type of stress yet that I felt in my last 2 positions. Its great

I believe so cause i got invited to watch the spurs vs okc playoff game that night with my
Cousins. The test was way out by coney island at some school out there. I think the calls go by availability. How did the process go? What area code number did they call from?

I'm not sure it was a while ago. I wanna say 718. The process was long for me because I got called for a provisional first in 2018 but didn't get it and then I took 2 more drug tests. So it was annoying but I'm finally in. Go to this website and look up your name for your list number. They are up to the 1200s I believe.

I made about 120-160 in the last calendar year definitely need more , to much money ain’t enough money. 500k a year after taxes makes the most sense I’d be content if I can bank that for 20 years. Ain’t nothing but about 10 a Week
