Friday (leading indicators)

Since being at my fathers for nearly 3 weeks now and working the punching bag nearly every day for an hour at least, I must say the muscles in my back are really starting to pop! I cannot remember the last time my back has been this shredded.

General daily frustrations

Here is an example of a daily frustration that I rarely find the time to talk about. How sloooooowwww everything is moving right now, one thing money certainly does is buy time. And in this case it is so evident, having bad credit, having really ruined it to force my ex wife to divorce me, has made my life extremely painful, and ironically enough, more difficult to keep up with and pay debts. One daily frustration I deal with is utilizing my secured credit card to rent cars so I can go out and work Uber, my current credit limit is set at $1,300.00 which gives me about 3 weeks of working Uber, and 1 week or more off while I wait for money to transfer from my debit card to my secured credit card, sometimes these waits can be up to nearly 20 days, keeping in mind that even though I successfully transferred money from my debit to the credit card, it takes time for the credit limit to update, can be another week before I can use my card. One way around this for me is to successfully increase the credit limit to $3,000 at least with enterprise who I currently rent with, the car has to be returned after a month and a new rental agreement drawn up. So while one rental agreement is processing on my card and funds are en route from my debit to credit card I can work uninterrupted doing Uber. All this is simply an exercise in patience, returning to my fathers house for a week or two of downtime is an opportunity that I seize upon to work on my Onlyfans, I spend that time ideally learning and planning for my next move in this world of business. To be honest as of today, I’m still not sure exactly what I’m going to do next, I know I will be replacing my onlyfans as soon as this year with another source of online income that is more societally acceptable, what that will be as of now I have no idea. I think by now I would know, but AI is such a wildcard now, it may be wise to sit this year out a bit and see how AI develops and have a clearer image of the industry’s that AI is going to disrupt. I would be in Dallas Texas today doing Uber, however, I am just a few dollars away from being able to rent a car, and my $100 payment that cleared on the 18th has still not materialized as usable credit, today is the 24th. I’m coming off of a painful month where I learned by falling out of the tree that I am only allowed 4 payments on my secured credit card a month, before this I was making small $30 payments, this came as a complete shock to me, and at the time I was trapped in an Airbnb of my town in Fayetteville Arkansas for 14 days with no rental car, being bled financially dry at the tune of $50 a day. It was not all bad though, I chose to purposely stay in the situation as the stress of running out of money forced me to work, about 2/3 of the way through the ordeal I turned on my jets and started doing lifetime access sales for my Onlyfans at a minimum of $20 apiece, most days I broke dead even on the $50 a few days I surpassed that number. Having no car and my Airbnb being in middle of suburbs meant I was constantly walking. I spent a good 4 hours average a day just walking. 2 hours to the gym and back 2 hours to the nearby convience store and Walmart and back. As someone who always looks on the bright side I was happy to be getting really good cardio, to be getting my steps in daily. Every day I would attempt to make a payment on my secured credit card as I was not told how many of the 30 days I had remaining until I could make a payment, just the error message that I could not make more than 4 payments in a month. Thankfully one day while in the Airbnb the payment went through, processed out of my bank quickly, and in less than a week my credit limit had updated, I was still $50 off from being able to rent a car, but the enterprise app came in clutch by allowing me 1 free day of rent, I confirmed my rental, booked an Uber to enterprise and got on the road! My last outing to Dallas was disastorous, my rental car broke down in the rain, enterprise was not open that entire day, so I hung out at a local McDonald’s all day long, buying a small cup of coffee every few hours and doing non stop direct sales on my Onlyfans.

Working at McDonald’s all day long, the alternative was to sit in my car with no power heat or air for hours.
My feet were soaked, the nearest Anytime Fitness where I could use a shower was nearly 3 hours away by foot, and it was doubtful a sidewalk would be available for the entire walk
Dead car
Waiting for towing company to come pick car up. I had to be careful about drinking monster, nearest bathroom is 40 minutes away by foot. Ended up waiting 5 hours for tow truck of what was expected to just be an hour
Waiting
Kids were walking to school, so I organized my crap, got it out of the way, expecting tow truck any minute.
After nearly 5 hours salvation arrived
