In LiewCF’s own words on the chitika blog
Back in 2005, I was a small webmaster for a local cosmetic company who only blogged in the free time. My blogging income was as much as my job’s salary. The idea of quitting my job and becoming a full time blogger came to my mind. It was a hard decision. It was about quitting a stable job with fixed salary and bet on a new job with unknown income.
However, I was only 25 year old and loan free. I had prepared enough savings for six months living as a backup. My biggest risk would be failing the job as a full time blogger, wasted few months time, and back to 9-to-5 office job as a webmaster or programmer.
