Client P paid me so that wraps up one client project!
Client T's website needs to be launched end-Jan, so that cements another month's extra pay.
Client F says they will wrap up by 13 Jan, so this is looking to be a very good month!

I will have funds, peace of mind, and focus for Monk Lyfe for the next 2 months :)

Worked on fnb.tools' social previews and footer `share` code. Couldn't figure out how to make dynamic OG images but "good enough" will have to do for now. DONE IS BETTER THAN PERFECT!

What an awesome, productive day! Livestreaming while I work seems to help me focus. It's the pressure of accountability, I reckon.

About

I have a degree in Marketing Management from University of Otago, New Zealand. I ran a successful restaurant for 13 years in Singapore, a brutally competitive market for F&B. I also ran a bakery for 7 of those years. I sold both businesses for 6 figures in 2019.

Then I taught myself to code, and have been working in software since. In 2021, I was hired as General Manager for a restaurant software startup, where I helped market and grow the app to $400k/year revenue.

On the side, I started building my own small projects, aimed at near-passive income. So began a 10,000-hour-long experiment to see if I can make $10k/month by "f*cking around and finding out". This blog is a daily record of the real hours spent & dollars earned.
