If you're starting your first company, don’t quit your stable 9-to-5 job right away. Instead, build your startup part-time while keeping your job. This gives you a stable income and helps you: 1. Avoid burnout 2. Last longer in the game 3. Stay focused (instead of being distracted by the next shiny thing) 4. Afford your bills and the tools you need 5. Stay grounded until your startup gains real traction Once your startup starts generating consistent income, then consider leaving your job. If this helped, follow me for more hard-earned startup lessons — maybe I can help someone avoid the mistakes I made in my own entrepreneurial journey.

Imo, full time in web3 is risky (I’m doing it by 3 years)

I get that but I also think a remote job in the industry I'm building in is better for my career than an in person job that's not what I Wanna do!

Yes totally, but if I stay in my old safe job, now I’ll be for sure less broke ahah Ofc I studied a lot of things here staying here 24h/24h, hope it’ll be worth it

😂 I can totally get that. Id love to hop on a call and share more and hear more or your experience. I actually took a pay cut with my current job cause of location but I would take another pay cut to be remote 😅

Like I could probably get a remote job in controls systems if I really pushed for it but I'd hate the 8 hours a day trying to do that vs anything in web 3 would improve my skill set as a founder / content creator in web 3 by being around it more

For sure, but till it doesn’t pay I would recommend to keep the 8hr/day job
