Very true - it may be best for many to just start building one business at a time (although I also mentioned the &quot;intra company&quot; strategy of finding multiple sources of income within each business so that you are never too reliant on any one source of income).

		<description>The one issue I have with this posting is the time factor. 

What a lot of people argue is that its often better to focus on one particular business rather than spread your efforts across 4 or 5 different projects. 

Otherwise, I think FS is asking good questions here. 

Thanks, 

James

		<description>The SEO-spam-style links in this guest post are really distracting. Mrs. Micah, it&#039;s my opinion that you should&#039;ve had him use the (lame) names of his companies as the anchor text for readability&#039;s sake.</description>

		<description>Sounds good Joel.  I was the same in my full-time job as well, working around 80 hours a week for the first year, and down to about 65-70 in the second year once I got a hang of it.

Your computer programing/coding skills are a big help, as I know jack do do!  But, it&#039;s fun to learn, and once the basics are set up for a blog at least, everything else is pretty easy.

I definitely read the 4 hour work week.  Good book, and catchy title.  

I&#039;ve decided to pursue my full time job to build my financial nut, but do something online, on the side.  It&#039;s been fun so far!

		<description>@ FS

I used to work around 80-100 hrs a week but now I work a much more typical work load because I try to automate as much as I can (and outsource certain things). My thinking was to work as much as possible right away so that I could then be freed up to do other things down the road (and have money coming in that I could use to outsource coding and other things that might take me like 5 hours to do and my coding genius friend like 10 minutes lol). One of my favorite books that talks about this is &quot;4 Hour Hour Workweek&quot; by Tim Ferriss which I am sure many have heard of.

		<description>Hey Joel!

Good to hear from you man.  Wow, 1,000 websites?!  Where do you have the time?  Do you ask others to set them up for you?   I can&#039;t imagine tracking more than 10 websites, let alone 1,000.  That&#039;s incredible!

Just doing some simple math, given you said some have made X, and others XX,XXX (! nice), if the average income per month is $100 (XXX), then $100 X 1000 = $100,000/month.  Is that a fair, or even conservative assumption?  If so, I gotta get cracking! hahaha, b/c that is just huge wealth!

Thanks for your compliments on my site.  I enjoy reading your comments.  Do you mind letting us know how many hours a week you work?

My dream is to just retire in 8-10 years, and just focus on 1 or 2 websites to try and bring in $100,000-$200,000.  I figure, after 8-10 years at building a brand, I can&#039;t possible fail, can I? :)

Best,

FS
