Season “How to Make 250K Per Year” · Episode 8
The Bad Years
What did the bad years cost me, and what did I change? · 3 November 2026
This episode is still to come. It will be about the years that did not go well, and what each of them cost me. One piece is already in “Why 250K”: when Corona came, the hardest hit for me was focus, with three kids at home. A bad year is one of the reasons 250K is my number in the first place. Hold your own number up against your worst year: would it carry you through, or would you need more?
