Hi everyone,

This is saskjimbo here. Over the years, I've posted some popular threads on this sub that are popular for no other reason than that they tell the truth.

The truth is hard. Some people are offended, some people are delighted, and some people are left wondering who they can trust.

I'm here with some more truth for you.

There are a ton of people on here who exhibit the following characteristics:

- Zero to no marketable/transferrable skills outside of their specialized job

- Little capital to start a business

- Desire to start earning income right away

- Desire a business that has serious potential

This leaves an individual with extremely few options. Of the options that are left, guess how many of them are fun and will provide you with immediate access to all the time and money that you'll need to start documenting your rockstar entrepreneurial life on Instagram?

Abso-******-lutely 0.

For 99% of us, life is hard. Most of us will get to decide if we want the pain now or later. So, before you start your endeavor devoid of skills and money, you need to decide if you want to be uncomfortable now or later. If it's later, that's fine. Come back in 10 years and maybe AI will have invented a way of making money that only requires an overdrawn bank account, just enough motivation to open /r/entrepreneur, and the ability to pick one's own ass.

For the rest of us who are prepared to endure some short term pain for long term gain, the question, then, is "what's left?" What business or skill can I get into that I can start seeing returns from tomorrow?

I have my own ideas on this, but I'd like to hear what you guys have to say. What business so hard or uncomfortable that most people avoid? Something that a person can start tomorrow and start kicking ass?
