Use your 9-5 to:
• Pay your bills
• Invest in assets
• Build your emergency fund
Use your 5-9 to:
• Invest in yourself
• Create a side business
• Build financial freedom
If you can work 8 hours a day for someone else, you can use your evenings and weekends to work on yourself.

Never let a job steal your life.
If you can work 8 hours a day for someone else, you can work 1-2 hours a day on yourself.
Use your evenings to work on a side hustle, build a side business, or learn new skills to increase your pay.
Eventually, your job will become a choice and not an obligation.
Use your 5-9 to replace your 9-5.
