This sort of work feels gross to me. Just grasping and grasping at whatever random widget or piece of ad software or widget that someone will spend a few dollars on to increase people clicking on ads and dropping it as soon as it’s not profitable enough. It feels like some churn of lowest common denominator work and the software equivalent of basically a grifter working random ethically-gray odd jobs.<p>And this culminates in them working for (and name dropping in the article repeatedly) someone I’ve never heard of, but upon looking them up I learned that they’re basically the ultimate grifter, selling “how to make $10k from home in a month” sorts of courses.<p>This whole thing feels gross, from the initial work to leveling up to being able to achieve their dreams of working for some arch grifter.
kind of surprised that the "What I would tell myself if I had to restart again" list didn't include not throwing all 100k of his parents "legacy" money into Tesla
