hey what's up guys today i want to do a
video and just tell you how my life has
changed
from a day to day basis i'm basically
just going to give you an example of
what my life looked like
before passive income and how passive
income has changed that day to day so
let's start
by
before i quit my nine to five job and i
only really ever held two different
nine to five jobs after school like
after graduating college uh both as a
web developer uh first i started as like
a mid-level developer and then i worked
as a senior front-end web developer at
the age of 25 which is typically
well it's not typical at all but i was
self-taught so i basically the cool
thing about being a developer by the way
you can quantify contributions it's not
like
um where all of this stuff is subjective
it's like no like i'm a really good
developer here's my work who cares what
my age is so i got paid a lot at a young
age
to be in the senior role at a basically
a startup kind of a startup vibe company
anyways as you guys know you know i'm
all about i like who doesn't like making
money here so i had my job as a senior
front-end web developer at 25 that's
also when i started teaching at the
college level uh seven years ago so now
i'm 32 today and i've been doing i've
been teaching also for seven years but
my average day working back then well
that's not my average day but two nights
a week i would have to go and work two
jobs so wake up probably about 8 a.m
uh i pre prep all of my food for the
next day the night before so basically
like wake up i do some stretching every
morning makes my day a whole lot better
go to the fridge grab my food for the
day bring my gym bag that's also prep
the day before head out maybe 8 45 get
to work 9am by the way that's not by
chance i bought a house close to where i
worked because i hate long commutes and
that also worked out pretty well for me
too with a lot of time saved there
because again time is money right
uh get to work 9am
you know what i mean work a normal day
pop out to the gym for about an hour a
day because hey my job let me so of
course i took full advantage of that uh
would leave work about five five fifteen
go to my next job which would start at
about six o'clock have to start teaching
now if this was the one of the two
nights of the week where i had to teach
two sections because i would teach three
sections of the course per semester uh
because if you're gonna do it you might
as well do it and get as much money as
possible so i would teach about
100 kids per semester and this sophomore
level uh web development course but i
have to go basically from one job
straight to the next typically with no
dinner
and teach from like 6 p.m to about 8 30
p.m now if i wanted to stay late
sometimes there you know there was a
second half of the class that i had a
graduate student that would help me
teach but they would be on the hook till
about 10 p.m so sometimes i was there
until 10 pm then you leave get home
about 10 15 and that is a long day right
the day started at about 8 45 a.m ends
at about 10 p.m now here's the thing
regardless of if i stay at my college
teaching job until 10 p.m or if i get
out of there at 8 30
guess what i go home guess what i'm
doing that's right i'm working on my
passive income anyways because i've
learned to love it even if i secretly
hate it i knew that that was gonna get
me out of the rat race the working two
jobs and no complaints making good money
but i knew that it was a means to an end
the passive income was gonna set me free
now fast forward eventually i did in
fact quit that nine to five job i still
have my teaching job however it's
definitely more convenient because now
it's online uh but i'm still doing three
sections per uh semester and whatnot but
my average day today is wake up whenever
i want literally do what i want when i
want regardless of what day of the week
it is um the flip side of that is that i
do work seven days a week as well uh but
i mean you know i travel a lot too even
when i record this video i'm actually
traveling to chicago this weekend for a
fantasy football draft with a bunch of
my closest friends from college and i
can do that i'm not limited by vacation
days etc um you know i set my own
schedule and as long as i have a little
bit of a heads up i pre-plan things in
advance and it's no issues and if i have
a laptop or a phone i can pretty much
manage my businesses uh as we mentioned
they are passive that word is key
because it runs itself you know what i
mean these business models that we talk
about on youtube they run themselves and
i want this life for everybody that
wants it for themselves please subscribe

full step-by-step courses that you guys
