I made $1M as a solopreneur (what it means for us) (marclou.beehiiv.com)

I appreciate the content you share and the movement you've created (or partly responsible for). But I wanted to ask you about this point:

85% is profit. 19% went to taxes. It took 7 years, 2 burnouts, and 1 depression.

If you could go back, would you consider taking the digital nomad path as an employee working remotely for a U.S. company (for example)?

possibly earning similar amounts if not more with potentially less stress? Or do you believe the solopreneur journey, with all its highs and lows, was still the better choice


That's the dream - well done you've opened the door for a ton more solopreneurs!
