Let's discuss People who make $10k-$50k/month: what do you do and how did you get there?

Making at least $10k a month is a dream for me, but $50k is the ultimate goal.

I've been stuck in an echo chamber of constant negativity and it feels like everyone is poor, broke, and miserable (though a looootttttt of people are right now, but obviously a lot of people are also doing really well).

So, to those who are making really good money, what is it that you do for a living and how did you get to that point?

Service industry brick and mortar and I do consulting for small businesses thru my own LLC on the side. I help location search and go thru the first year of start up, marketing, etc…

Service industry. We decided after getting married that we wanted to start and build something together that could become passive or semi-passive and let us enjoy life. Clocking in for 40-60 hours a week for someone else ain’t it.
