Today’s episode is part of a new feature we’re doing in 2022 called ‘Your First $1,000.’ As you might surmise from the title, this is all about how someone made their first $1,000. How did they get to that point? Not their first $100,000—that’s cool, but it would probably be a long story. One thing I’ve learned is that once you begin to earn real money, the steps required to go to the next level—whether it’s $1,000 to $2,000, or even to $5,000 or $10,000 are often easier than that first real paycheck. With that in mind, today’s feature comes from Elaine in Wayne County, Michigan. She’s an accountant for her day job and works as an engagement photographer for her side hustle. But what about their first $1,000—how did they make that happen, what did it feel like, and what did they learn? Let’s hear it from Elaine. I’ll be back at the end to wrap us up. Yours in the revolution,
