If my math is correct, your company - which you run when you aren't at your job - makes you as much money as your job does? QUIT!

It's possible that he's not taking that money out of the company right now, so he's not thinking of the money the company is making as current income, which would mean that the company makes him half as much as his job does.

Which is still pretty good. I'm not saying that that amount of profits doesn't mean he should quit, just that it seems more likely that he's making half what his job is.

Hi Kadavy-- yes-- I make about 80% of the amount from my company as I do from my job.
