Entrepreneurship is a superpower. - I hired my wife half a year ago, and today, I hired my sibling. They both used to work at a mediocre yet demanding job.

The fact that I can "rescue" them by offering a very flexible and sustainable job definitely feels like a superpower.

I'm not sure how long this will last because no one knows what tomorrow will bring. But I'm proud that I'm improving the lives of those around me.

P.S: I work in e-commerce. Please refrain from spamming my inbox.

Edit: Perhaps I'm not the best with words. I certainly don't believe I'm superior to anyone. It's just that I've somehow managed to carve out a little space that allows me to share my freedom with those close to me.

Here's another analogy: It's as if I happen to be able to afford a car, so I decided to drive my friends around. This way, they don't have to use the less than ideal public transportation. Am I their savior? No. Have I improved a small aspect of their lives? Yes.

I've been upfront with them about this not being about making a ton of money, but about gaining sustainable freedom to do whatever they love in their spare time. I'm also not sure how long this will last, so if they're willing to take the risk, they're welcome to join me.

None of us on the team are money-oriented people. My sibling didn't even negotiate the wage I'm paying him, and it is about half of his original pay from the ex-job. I've combined the finance part with the wife way before the company is established. So there might be thousands of causes to make this collab a failure, money is not one of them.
