Income Opportunities
The key takeaway for me is that we need time and flexibility to create multiple streams of income. We cannot rely on just one income source.

There is income security.
There is income continuity.

In today’s volatile workplaces and with automation, there is no guarantee that our jobs will be around in the future. This uncertainty is vital to drive action to future-proof our jobs now.
