Hi from Argentina too! Congratulations for the kid. Remember to sleep now, the next 18 years are more difficult. Never invest more than you can afford to lose. It's difficult to invest unless you understand how the market work and there are no zero risk, high gain investment. Perhaps invest a small part like 10% or 20%, assuming there is a real chance you will loose it. For my situation, I prefer an stable job, but I don't have too much savings. Each one has it's own bias. I think a startup may cause family problems. You will be at home during the quarantine drinking mate and chatting with your friends, and not taking care of the baby. I think your SO will understand that this is your work, but after a few night of sleep deprivation and changing too many diapers ... The advantage of a consulting/freelancing job is that you will get a paycheck and that makes your job real. With some luck you can get the same dollars with less work time. I'd recommend to read whatever patio11 wrote about consulting like https://www.kalzumeus.com/2012/09/17/ramit-sethi-and-patrick... or https://www.kalzumeus.com/2012/09/21/ramit-sethi-and-patrick... . Also, there is a monthly freelance thread here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23379195 |
