One of the biggest myths in business is that success requires expensive overhead. Many entrepreneurs believe they must commit to long office leases, furniture purchases, utilities, and IT infrastructure before they’ve even generated consistent revenue.

So when the opportunity came, I jumped. What I didn’t jump into was the reality of the overhead that followed.
