  1. MicroAcquire (Buy and sell micro businesses)

This is an amazing place to buy a small online business that has passed validation. You want something with a minimum of 25-30 customers. What sticks out here is that (A) they include micro listing – $5-10k and (B) are starting to have some from the education space.

  1. Article – How much your time is really worth?

  1. Article – Find a Position of Leverage

Key Takeaways

  • If it entertains you now but will bore you someday, it’s a distraction. Keep looking. 
  • If your curiosity ever leads you to a place where society eventually wants to go, you’ll get paid extremely well.
  • If they can train you to do it, then eventually they will train a computer to do it. 
  • Build your brand. Make a name for yourself. When it is time to move on the opportunity, you can do so with leverage.
  • You’re never going to get rich renting out your time. 
  • Learn to sell, learn to build. If you can do both, you will be unstoppable.
