Hello everybody!
My name is Adrian, I am from Spain and now I live here too. My age is 28 and I am a network engineer. This week I have just finished the book and directly joined to this community. It has really impacted in my life in a very positive way, probably like in most of yours.
My current situation is unemployment by choice. I used to work in Madrid, in a 9-18 job as an embedded systems programmer and I left it some months ago. After traveling during 3 months in the EEUU, I decided to start my own business, so I am learning in the internet, reading lots of books and thinking about lifestyle. I have always worked as an employee so I am changing my mind to be a business man.
I have one question that maybe any of you can help me to solve. A friend of mine is the owner of a small company involved in some product distribution: importing and exporting activities. He offered me to work for a while with his team and in this way, introduce myself to this new business world. I think that this is a win-win situation: I can modernize and automate some parts of the business in exchange for learning how it works from inside and earning some money (now I have no income but savings). The other option is starting it just right now. What do you think about it? What would you do?
Thanks in advance
