Hi,
Can the Redditors help me out?
I am Peter, 38yo, married, two young children and 100% declared unfit to work by our government here in The Netherlands.
I receive now disability benefits instead of salary for the rest of my life. How long that is depends on my fkced up illness.
I am born with the illness called Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Life expectancy is 40yo. In short CF fucks up my lungs due to chronic lung infections. So much that transplantation is needed if there is a donor. If not. Then its my time to say goodbye to my wife and children. Luckily i am lungfunction wise still on the good side of the balance.
I want to educate myself at home to make up for the loss of salary and to have something for myself to develop. On my own terms and my own pace. So when i have a good day i can learn something and work a bit and on bad days nobody expect something from me.
But i am lost in translation concerning possibilities.
I looked at: 1. Android / iphone apps developement at home. 2. Game streaming on twitch/ youtube. Note that i am a gamer first, I like to stream since a few years; maybe i can be more professional about it and make a buck / Euro. 3. Getting in stock exchange? 4. ...
Are there people out here in similair positions who can help me out with idea's? Or are here people wo have dealt with people in my situations and have tips?
My work CV:
- Business Continuity Management (BCM) expert at Ernst & Young for Europe and Middle East.
- BCM expert for Capgemini.
- Information security management consultant
School: 1. Bachelor degree 2. Shit ton of business courses, self development courses, sales during my wokring days.
My affinities in random order: 1. Sports; doing itself and watching 2. Fantasy (LOTR, GoT,...) 3. Gaming 4. Everything about Space, planets etc etc... 5. Music listening and want to learn to play the gitar. 6. Reading
Thanks so very much.
Cheers, Peter
Ps. Dont know if you all need proof? Look at my history there are some comments in relevant subreddits. If you all want more let me know. For example I iceskated 116 km in 9 hours to battle CF and got sponsored for it.
