I used to think I needed a degree to be an expert at something, but those days are long gone. And now I see so many others who believe they must be somehow ordained an expert before they can monetize their knowledge or skills. Your post "Replacing your J-O-B Income" makes the transition seem so completely simple, which is great, because it is cut and dry. This is a lesson I need reminding of often, since I often tend to make things more complicated than they really are. Cheers, and looking forward to your All Content Matters presentation!

The silver lining is that we do learn some skills from each of those J-O-B's as well as a lot about ourselves! Great to hear, this seems to be a pretty typical route for us.

You are not a unique position, from all the people I have talked to over the years about this very subject it is clear that most of us start out with very little capital. In fact I was a single mother and was still able to make this lifestyle work. I took an inventory of my skills, as well as what I knew I could learn quickly that was needed in the world at that time. I immediately started networking, there is no better way to get started than by making relationships built on trust and honesty. You might enjoy this article I wrote on getting started and replacing your employee income: http://geneticallyunemployable.com/entrepreneurship/replacing-your-j-o-b-income/ Over the next few weeks I will be adding some resources to help you with this piece of the puzzle as well as adding in a podcast of others that have made the switch from employment. Keep in touch Mike, I would love to hear how you progress. Mike, becoming resourceful is your answer to this fantastic question.
