And now it's not.

So maybe it's time to look up and go, okay, what does Austin want to do?

What do you want to be?

And what do you want to continue to do?

Where do you see yourself five years from now?

How old are you, Austin?

How long did you do the painting business?

Well, I think that for six months of business, if you made $79,000, that's not bad.

What if you continued?

I mean, I got to believe if you continued, you would continue to grow that income.

And 80 is not that far away from 100 that you're trying to get to when you're the one going out, you know, to quote Dave, going out, killing something, dragging it home.

Yeah, I mean, it's 75, not quite 79, but... I understand, but when you're the one out getting a job and those jobs are, you know, 3,000 a pop or whatever it is, that's... There's a lot more hope there that I can get to a number, right, than just waiting for somebody who's paying me, I don't know, $18 an hour to get there, right?

So I...

I don't dislike the idea of you keeping the current job that you have now because it is money coming in whilst you start up this painting thing again.

Because if you made $75,000 in six months, you could surely go out and get a couple of clients and get that up and running in the next month or so doing painting jobs on the weekend or whatever your free time is.

Am I wrong?

Okay, so you never got to it.

That was the projection.

Yes, yeah, correct.

Okay, so you made $35,000 in six months, which is still not a bad side hustle.
