Hey @kaylinart

I also want to be self-employed and start my own business. I am full-time worker now though I am an online marketer. I think there are many expenses which we neglect when we work.

The most valuable asset we have is "Time". We give our time to help other make money but we don't take time to learn new things and create 2nd increase stream.

I've started my blog and I am write on few sites like Steemit where I am earning extra from my online activities.

I work as a freelancer as well.

Thanks for this valuable post.
