From July straight through December was crazy, lots of hours when everyone is sleeping I'm packaging and on the computer when everyone is awake I'm still online and packaging , and I slept ten minutes here and there, went two days straight 3 hour sleep than 2 day 3 hour and on and on, tons of work but lots of fun , it's nice to not need to worry about money and worth all the sleepless nights,

I know that feeling very well!!

Many nights with 2-3 hours and off to take kids to school.

That is what irritates me when someone tells me they do not want to put in no more then 30 min a day of learning stealth because they have other things to do.

It' not worth all the sleepless nights it's unhealthy, and money's never enough the more you have the more you stress.

Have done it for years. Esp when I owned and operated my own manufacturing company.

Some people can operate on 2-4 hours of sleep and some cannot.

You cannot let it stress you. If it does then you are not enjoying it at all and need to find something else to do.

I would rather work then sit in front of the TV for countless hours. Something I wont waste my time doing is sitting in front of a TV for hours.

Its 1:30 am here and the DH just got home a while ago from traveling. We are ready for the Wii family games at 1:30 am. Time to kick some butt.

Well I couldn't afford higher tuition my first year. Im also a urm and transfer acceptance actually increases for us.

I have been a full time ebayer for the past decade. We average 100k a month in gross sales every month for the first three quarters in 2013. A personal issue came up, I decided to take three months off, ENDED all listings and turned on the vacation settings. Ebay did NOT like this at all and I got indefinitely suspended for reason not quite understandable. I still sell wholesale to many other ebay sellers and just now opening several EIN ebay accounts to make sure something like that can never happen again. Ebay will reinestate our account if I supply layoff slips. We hire companies and VAs to ship items and process orders, not 300 employees. It will be a challenge to rebuild with such insane selling limits, but in the long run it is a great learning experience.

Full time means you dedicate your time finding items and creating a business to replace your current "Full Time" income.

Taxes is another entire issue. Virtually everyone who has a business will see great tax benefits compared to a w2 earned income earner.

If you earn money you pay taxes.

You find yourself a good tax professional who guides you.
