What makes me money is staying aware of changes in German bureaucracy, and other things that recent immigrants should know about. My solution is information streams. I set up various stream that surface important information so that I don’t need to seek it. It saves me an absurd amount of time. This includes people who write to me when specific things in their field change, a WhatsApp group of relocation consultants, and monitoring lots of German laws for changes with Wachete. I also follow the monthly changes gazette from the German government. This covers 90% of what I need to know. I am now designing a tool to gather feedback from my readers about unobservable things such as the processing times at the immigration office. This would be insanely valuable to people who apply for a residence permit. In summary, I automate the surfacing of important information, and make sure the updates come at a reasonable frequency, with as little noise as possible. For everything else, I just don’t care. Knowing the latest and greatest in tech does not affect my income. I can build valuable things with old, boring tech.
