That's the conundrum! It's not easy. And because you don't want to burn bridges and want to have a clear conscience, work on a vertical to your employer's. This means you'll likely need to spend time learning about a new vertical. But that's OK you're determined and hungry. I've done it. People have done it.

So don't overcomplicate. Build a daily habit for the next few years. And don't bog yourself down with little details and ifs and buts. I started with a $80/mo allocation. Some were able to do it with $0/month.
