I think this is really important for everyone to have with the way things are going in the world right now, you can't just rely on one income especially for a man.

The bills keep increasing everyday for a man, for a lady too, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that and for me writing is like is side hustle and the profit I make as helped me lot of time when I'm totally out of funds.

Been using writing as my side hustle since 2017. It was this side hustle that paid for my first lunch date. Even if your income is great you still need to have a side hustle

Glad to be your role model, now I can add that to my list, hehehehe. You got me to thinking about the jobs that I have done to stay self-employed. When my kids were small, I babysat for others, I had 9 kids that I watched. I dug wild clams and sold them, I fished, when fishing was bad in the summer I picked palmetto berries, I grew plants and grew clams from the size of beach sand to the size of tennis balls, and I cleaned houses. I have managed to stay my own boss and you can do it, too.

Anything that you try to do being self-employed takes a lot of time and work. It would be nice to own a fish farm but here in Florida, there are a lot of restrictions. When we grew clams, we had raceways that we grew them in, I always wondered if they would have worked for growing fish. Have you thought of growing blue crabs? They do well in freshwater ponds if that is what you have and they are worth good money.

Haven't done crabs at all, I'm into catfish and it is good business too.. Not sure crabs will sell in Nigeria

I think you are right about that, they are rich people's food. The only reason we eat them is that we can catch our own. Good luck with your catfish, they are my husband's favorite, I do not care for freshwater fish. We have a big lake where we go to catch them, I do love to do that, and we freeze them for him to eat. I have saltwater fish for me.
