Lifestyle businesses are not to be sneered at. Small, cash-flow businesses that can be run at any hour of the day give you freedom. I am currently living in South Africa for 4 months just kiting and coding. Next stop Norway and then San Francisco. I work 3-12 hours a day depending on wind, friends and plans. Tim Ferriss's 4-hour work week is very possible and, as I have discovered, very enjoyable. I know that I want to build a meaningful company when I have found a concept that I can happily commit a decade of my life to. I can say that about my kiting but not about any business idea I have found so far.
I would love to continue the conversation here or on Twitter if you like: http://twitter.com/ricburton http://twitter.com/ricburton
- jasonkester 15y agoThere are actually quite a few of us here (surfing in nicaragua myself at the moment.) every month or so another article will come through with somebody you've never heard from before summing up a year's worth of traveling and building a business from the road. Seems it will only get more popular over time, since every one of those articles has at least one comment along the lines of "ok, screw it, you've convinced me. I just booked my flight!"
- richardburton 15y agoYeh it is definitely a growing trend. I am not interested in going off the grid for a year. I love being online all the time. Love it. I just want to kite and code. I have decided to write more about a few things here: http://kiteandcode.com http://kiteandcode.com
