What I did today
Today was relatively productive. I ended up officially signing on a new project and making a good amount of money there. This project is for a private equity client who wants to know whether or not a specific market is a good one to invest in.
So, my role is to dig into this market and learn everything I need to in order to absolutely crush this project. I’m pretty excited about it because I think it’ll be a fun one to look into.
I also have another project that feels like it has a >90% chance of closing and that’s >$10,000 for a month’s worth of work.
It’s busy right now, but it’s also exciting. I need to continue to bring money in, keep expenses low, then use that money to invest in assets that will consistently pay me.
In that world, I reach the $1K/day in passive income and retire. Let’s get there!

My plan for tomorrow
Tomorrow should involve working on a couple of things, such as the affiliate website, to ensure that I’m making progress on the passive income side of things.
I also need to make sure that I’m keeping this private equity project moving in the right direction. For some reason, I almost have a bad feeling about this one!
