Seriously, stop falling for the ‘get rich quick’ crap. Build actual skills instead.

Alright, straight to the point. Nothing to sell, or promote, I just wanted this out of my chest.

Scrolling through feeds, anyone else getting hammered with “make 10k in 10 days!” or “automate your way to millions!”? or “My saas makes me 10k monthly using AI”? The whole “get rich quick” fantasy is everywhere, and honestly, it’s kinda toxic.

Let’s cut the BS. Building a real, sustainable business just doesn’t work like that. There’s no secret hack or magic system that replaces putting in the work and actually knowing what the hell you’re doing.

Thinking you can skip the grind and get rich overnight is a one-way ticket to losing your shirt and getting seriously demotivated. It leads you down rabbit holes of scams and makes you feel like a failure when their “easy money” promises don’t pan out.

The real thing here is to focus on building real skills. stuff that creates value:

  • Getting damn good at sales or marketing (not the usual bs in twitter, and posting non sense just for framing likes from useless people)
  • Understanding your customers better than anyone else. (be the customer first)
  • Developing the grit to keep going when things get tough (and they will).

That’s where the real leverage is. That’s how you build something that lasts, something that actually pays off big time because you’ve built a solid foundation.

I totally agree. Somewhat related, every day there are kids on here asking, “okay, what should I do?” like all they need is the perfect business idea and then they’ll just go implement it. But a good business idea comes from being in the industry and seeing first-hand what people need. It’s not something you just think up. What they should really do is go get a job in an industry they like. The business will come from there after a couple of years.
