For me it's all about getting extra cash flow and not large capital gains. Just started working a few years so slowly increasing the inflows. And starting these small projects is fun

yeah, couldn't agree more. its more about learning how to run a business at this stage.

Having a hobby turned into an income is always a good thing, having been there myself once.

But the journey is tough, especially so if there are no other sources of income. But the experience and lessons learnt can never be bought with any amount of cash.

definitely, bottom line is that there still are bills to be paid. some sort of passive income is essential if one is to run a startup full time.

not to say I'm pessimistic or what, but my idea is that when people go into a business, they must go in with the mindset of being prepared to lose whatever money they have sunk in, instead of dreaming big from the get go. always unforeseen bottlenecks and stuff especially when one is new in the biz.

      WTS Tanks, Equipment

      Hey everyone, I've a set of many things to sell off as one set. The following are in this set: 1. Long fish tank, 90x30x30 - beautiful glass, well taken care of, no scratches 2. Standard fish tank, 60x45x45 - beautiful glass, as you can see, still with bottom and top cardboard covers. 3. Metal stand for the long tank - rusted by strong. Usable. Please note the width of this stand is 50, and the long tank's width is 30, so there's around 15 cm space. 4. Nano tank, well taken care of. Beautiful glass. (The gadgets in there all taken out, so just tank with it's back sump. 5. A baby tank 6. A bunch of stuff: - Tidal 35, Seachem filter - two oxygen pumps - plastic fish tank protein skimmer - portable fan - large wavemaker - 90x45 nice tank background poster - mini filters Basically what's in there + take. In the photos below, I've saved some pictures from when I purchaser them. These were all used for marine/saltwater fish - if you want to convert to others; simply wash (that's why I got these tanks, flexibility). I've used them for a year or less. Selling since these are in my office, and we have settled on one custom size. And we may be moving. Need to send these off. Would prefer someone to take everything, clear everything. Only $220 for everything. If I see anything else I don't want laying around, I'll also pass to you. Self-collection/self pick up. Location: Indus Road, ground floor. PM me if keen, cheers!e0774394470a15537f6187c32e4cb04f.avif sg-11134201-22100-a8sr3atpx6ivfe.avif
