I'd take 60k working for myself over 120k working for someone else
fukk all that. 120k with my lifestyle means I can invest and not have to worry about things such as insurance. Work 9-5 with an in-demand skill, cake up, and only move to my business full time if it rivals my current gig AND I have a nest egg. I have had two businesses and that shyt is work.

The first sign someone don’t know a damn thing they talking about is when they discuss “writing stuff off” smh

Writing sh*t off isn’t some magical path to money. All it does is decrease your tax liability, and you still gotta pay taxes at some point my G.

You can make 60k, write off 10k of stuff and still owe 5k, meaning you really took home 55k…

Also your bookkeeper/cpa is not just writing off anything you idiots. They gonna make you show and prove that your expenses are necessary for the business, because if not, your bank statements will show that you have a personal piggy bank and no seperation, so good luck on that business line of credit my G

Under no circumstances is 120k 9-5 with health insurance and 401k not a better option by far than some 60k LLC :gucci:

How TF is this even a discussion

Bro this thread is just as bad as LLC Twitter with all the babbling going on. A lot of people have no clue.

Someone in here really said they'll buy a 5 unit building and rent it out after two years of working at 120k, lmao.

I agree. I need the guaranteed easy money with minimal lifting a traditional job provides.

I have no urge to work 80 hour weeks for myself. how is that living?
It comes down to what your values and goals are in life. You’re a Bulls fan so being competitive obviously isn’t an important thing to you.

This is why I laugh at all these so called women business owners on social media, especially the ones who selling cheap jewelry or those weight loss drinks.. and the nikkas I see are always some music type LLC

I don’t care for what no other race is doing, but damn what’s with 80% of nikkas so desperate to be called a CEO, BOSS, etc etc

nikkas could be would be working 9 to 5 making 50 -60k a year as a sales manager but that’s embarrassing because it’s not a CEO BOSS title attached to that
It all goes back to the hip hop culture of always wanted to brag and stunt on other nikkas.

Give me the $120k. I'd save $3,000/month. After 2 years I'd buy a 5 unit apartment and rent each unit for $1200.

So now I got $6k/month in disposable income.
youre going to buy a 5 unit apartment unit in America for $72,000 and the $1200 a month you make from the 5units will = $6k a month disposable income with no mortgage, repairs, property taxes ? ok.


:wow: I can finally post after weeks :wow:

Owning is business is very hard, but you might be better off being your own boss than being a employer.
