Earn money in your spare time

This strategy to leave work and start a business is fairly risk-free and obvious: Start a business while you're working. The business you work on in your spare time is your "side-gig" or "side hustle."

This is exactly what Brian Creager did. Brian was on a high six figure salary in corporate America, with a wife and two children to look after.

Brian eventually created a men's haircare product brand. Two months after putting the product on Amazon, Brian had made $600 revenue before costs. Not much to get excited about.

However, Brian's mastery of the Amazon marketplace meant that, just six months later, his monthly gross profit exceeded his six-figure corporate income.

Work at your "side hustle" while you're at work

Kelly Exeter was a web designer who was doing so many freelance side-gigs, she sublet a tiny 10 ft. x 10 ft. office in the same building as her previous company, and started her agency Swish Design. Within two months, she was earning more than her salary at her original job.

Six to twelve month "runway"

When Jyotsna Ramachandran quit her job in Chennai, southern India, she had 6 months of money saved up and a husband who was working and supported her decision.

Also from India, this time Bangalore, Sriranga Ramaseshan, an employee at Hewlett-Packard, spent two and a half years saving up enough money. He handed his notice in March 2013. He now runs his own school Eduplot Learning Solutions teaching accounting qualifications where he employs 20-25 teachers.
Or, just do it

Mads Singers had a good job with IBM in the UK, but thought he could help more people by setting up his own consulting business. He moved to Davao in the Philippines with no more than $10,000 in savings and only $200/month income from the one coaching client he'd picked up. He wanted to feel uncomfortable to force himself to do amazing stuff. Mads's is still based in Devao and his coaching business is going strong.

They are: young and old; married, un-married; with young kids, with grown up kids, without kids; male, female; from all four corners of the "developing" and "developed" worlds; university educated, 15-year-old school leavers; and from just about every economic background - proving that anyone can free themselves from employment. You just need desire.

You Can Do It

The above case studies prove that entrepreneurship is now available for all. You only require desire, flexibility and constant application.

The book also talks about working from home, getting your significant other on board, your health, meeting other entrepreneurs, setting up websites, getting clients, finding a passion project that you can work on, and a lot more besides.
