OT Working from Home

@SheedSoNasty are you a good writer?

I’m not bad. I made it all the way to the 17th grade.

We have an ADU that is being rented already. Tutor might be the way to go.

I’m sure there is a huge market out there for an older German car in good shape that costs a ton if anything goes wrong with it.....HA!

Gonna price it like that Ipad or whatever that was you wanted to sell?

Quick google search shows those cars started around the mid 30s way back then.

I'd say you should price it at about 29,000 and leave a teensy bit of room to haggle.

SLEP teaching...get a second language teaching certificate and teach English from home. Buy some syllabus programs series like Side by Side and set up a classroom.

Not a bad idea. I have certificate already.

Aren’t you the one who likes those little Japanese race cars with neon underneath?

Uhhhhhh no. I want this...

But needing a cheap daily driver with airbags and is also too slow to get me in trouble but still absolutely fun to drive built this for under 3500 bucks including the price of the car.

I just wish we'd gotten every focus RS that Europe got. They were better than the SVTs. Luckily we got the mk3 version.

I totally would love to have the 1969 Pontiac GTO. Just like my grandpa's!

Mid to late 60s American..... my favorites.

Nice GTO. Went up against a few of those in my day. Here is what I had my junior year in high school. It was the ultimate sleeper as it had a 427cid with an underrated 390hp. It was scary fast and extremely rare.

Yep. Grew up right in the middle of the muscle car era. Started with a nice 65' Mercury Comet Caliente, then to a 1967 Ford Fairlane GTA with a 390cid, then went to a 1968 Mercury Cougar with a 427cid w-390hp and then to a 1967 Ford Mustang GTA with a 390cid. Nothing like a rumble of a big block and a dad that knew how to mod them. Unfortunately the gas crisis came along and it time to go economical for college so I went to a little VW bug (modified, lol). Thankfully the custom Van craze came along and went in that direction with a couple of Vans that were customized and in some Truck and Van shows, but always miss that muscle car era.

The 1946 Chevy Truck is another vehicle I would love to have!

So, I’m a teacher but am taking this school year off to take care of my boys. I love spending time with them, being there for my oldest to pick him up from school and help out with homework, etc. I feel like we have struck a good balance at home with my wife working and me taking care of most everything else. We still have a few years before my twins go to school.

Financially, it would be very hard for us to keep this up beyond September. With that said, have any of you had experience working from home? I would love something where I could set my own hours but I really don’t know where to even start. Money isn’t the first priority here, but am looking for a way to still be here for my kids but bring in some money whenever I can. Any thoughts?

Sheed - I can help you with this. This is my wheelhouse, what I do - teaching others how to go solo. Here's a good start

I had a new focus.. for a few weeks until i traded it in for the crv. I couldnt fit comfortably in it. Mostly issues with just being too low to the ground and getting in and out was hard. We are both big guys. How do you fit in it comfortably? Did you mod out?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

I work from home about 3 days/week. Love being home when my kids get home. As many hours as I work, I love having a flexible schedule that allows me to handle my shit from home. If I had to be to office everyday, with the hours I work, I’d never see my kids.

When I give a speech about the gig economy / solopreneurship, this is my opening line:

"When you work from home, there is good news and bad news. The good news is - you see your kids a lot. The bad news is, you see your kids a lot!"

Essential oils.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Thats exactly what they said......She is old, but very well maintained. Didn’t fall in Uber’s peramiters though. I understand. Not too many people want to drive around in an almost 16 year old car. My opinion, I’d rather roll in a 2003 Audi A6 4.2L, than a brand new Kia.

My daughter graduated Seattle U last year. This year she is tutoring Chinese elementary students in English via Skype. Pays very well, but odd, very later night hours.

I have short legs for my height. The headroom is great and there is very little center console so my legs don't rub up against it.

The Recaro seats are the best seats I've ever sat in. Even being bigger than they were designed for they're still awesome. Most recaros or seats like them are too small.
