My Most Successful Income Stream No One Talks About
When I moved back to the U.S. after living in Sydney for 2 years, I had almost no marketable skills. My architectural design skills in Sydney were all about the Australian building codes and regulations, which did not apply in the U.S. I was effectively starting from scratch again.

In a few short years, I was getting clients of my own and traveling the world full time.
