Hi everyone, hope you have a great day.

Some of you may remember me from my previous thread, in which I started from zero to $20k to study in Poland. As you know, I succeeded on my previous journey and earned roughly $30k in total. Now I'm in Poland, a lot happier than before, and ready to work harder than ever.

In this journey, I'll try to grow my net wealth to $125k before 2025 ends. My main strategy was freelancing, hackathons, my AI startup, and cryptocurrency investment. Now I have more knowledge of everything, and ready to do experiments in various money-making fields.

I will try to update you once a month. If you are interested please read my story about my previous journey: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/my-journey-to-study-in-poland-10-20k.1554503/

What's the plan
Currently, I'm trying to deliver my last freelancing projects to get paid. For the next 6 months, I won't get paid jobs since I need to spend my time experimenting with other work fields. On top of that, I have a Saas project in my schedule which I've been planning for the last 4 months. I rely on that project a lot but can't put all my eggs in one basket, so of course I have backup plans for everything.

First of all, I cannot risk more than $10k. Because I have living expenses and cannot afford that much of a risk with $30k. So at the beginning of this journey, I'll play safe. I won't be trading, I won't be doing expensive experiments like burning all my money on Google Ads to learn it, or I won't be putting all my money on crypto.

The safest way to earn money for me is hackathons. I will be participating in hackathons this whole year, no matter how much I earn. They help me to learn and adapt to new technologies, and make a decent amount of money.

The most risky way is probably my startup. Because I'll be wasting a lot of money on advertisement. Worth mentioning that I've never done a single advertisement before. I don't know what is A/B testing, I don't know how to convince people to buy your product. I know nothing. That's where I will be losing money to learn something. As I said, it's for the future.

For now, all I need to focus is delivering my last works to reduce workload on me. I have interesting plans to grow my wealth. Stay tuned!
 
Crazy that you mention winning hackathons as it's normal

Why not try to get a FT job for 6-8k, in a year you would be at 102k with your 30k and add to it your SAAS revenue

Good luck you already have everything to get this done!
 
This is not related to the thread but how is life in Poland? Cheap or expensive? Different language problem? Getting around the area and meeting people? Are Polish women really that beautiful?

Thanks for your advice. I'm still a student here so I cannot work full-time even though it means I work remotely. So a stable income like that is not very possible.

Winning hackathons is not that difficult, to be honest. People don't read the documentation of new technologies and spam the same project over and over. Even winning a small hackathon (maybe $4-5k) every month, should be enough for now.

1) It's almost the same as Turkey, meat and cars are very cheap. Compared to rest of the Europe, it's very cheap.
2) Young people often speak English. Old people don't, but I can still communicate somehow. It's not very easy though.
3) As I have seen, people are kind.
4) Yes.

Man, if you can start the business without putting any money within it, you'll be madly successfully upward. Just plant that seed: I'm willing and open to accept that I can start the business without spending big bucks....
