I like the Power Pack , I think they ' re super <| sep |> you gotta remember that women have their own goals too , and often dont want to stick in a relationship just to follow their partners goals and fit her own wishes around theirs <| sep |> So figure out your new hourly rate post investment , and see if it justifies the cost . Just understand that what you are doing is a lifestyle choice , and not a smart business move . You are buying yourself a job , and from what you are describing , one that doesn ' t pay as much as you ' d make elsewhere . Only you can decide if it ' s worth it , but just don ' t assume it is . Do the math . Also consider that you and your GF both working in the business amplifies your risk . Another bad year is another year of 0 income for you both .
