Interesting.

I tell people believing in their abilities made the difference.

Having money helps(well paid 9-5), but knowing that with enough googling and never giving up mentality, you can solve real problems. Sometimes I am shocked at how little is needed to solve problems that the entire world is currently dealing with, but my fully capable friends dont even try.

Can you give examples? Would love to tackle some big problems with small resources with my team in the long term.

Pretty much any home automation.

Moving stuff from downstairs to upstairs, laundry, hair stuff.

You might not be able to custom for every home, but you can make modular components.

EDIT: Motors and pullys are cheap, but you need to understand that + embedded systems. All an engineer+programmer is capable of.
