Back in 2004, I was working in a large regional bank handling small to mid-sized businesses and their loan requests. I had my own little office, and a nice title and salary.
But I was miserable.
Sick of the big bank, I left for a small bank doing the same thing.
Well, 6 months later, the large bank I left announced that they were buying the small bank.
We all had to re-interview for our jobs, and while there were nice people, I wasn't interested in going back.
So, I went to another institution which was really the first professional taste of what I now.
Well, that didn't work out either. That organization changed their mind in what they wanted to do.
Back out on the street I went, and that's when I decided to start my own practice. It's been hard, and a lot of blood, sweat and tears. And I struggle with motivation and discipline all of the time.
But I wouldn't trade it for anything.
So, as you are looking for that next great opportunity, consider making your next great opportunity.
Here's some tips on how to start with less than $100.
