— Future You

I’m going to assume you’re not an idiot, so why start with Beginners tutorials? You know how basic economics work, supply and demand, how businesses make money…
What makes businesses work though? People. You’re a person, right? So how can you make money? We have ideas all the time, but take some time to really develop one.

Your task:

The trick to changing the future is bartering with your past. In this first Tradecraft quest, you’ll swap tasks with your past self — and invest in your future self. So confident you could make money? Prove it, by working with all timeline versions of yourself.
Propose a goal you could achieve within 12 months which would set up a passive income stream for you. Either brainstorm, or ask a companion (AI or otherwise) to help you brainstorm this goal.
That’s not the end though. To complete your quest, you need to put your money where your mouth is: Purchase something which will help you achieve your 12 month goal, and share it with the community!

Tips:

1) You know what’s more valuable than money? Time! Investing in tools which save you time is always valuable. 2) Really getting choice paralysis, huh? Why not raise your Focus skill and invest in memory foam pillows or weighted blankets? 3) Low risk investments are good. Unsure if something will help you? Consider signing for a trading guild to recoup costs by selling it otherwise! Time travel works in months, but also decades. Health supplements, posture improvements, weights, grip trainers, ergonomic furniture – your future self will thank you!

Why?

As some of you may know, Nan Tendo’s Witch 2 released yesterday. I cancelled my pre-order because I couldn’t justify the money or time to enjoy it.

My energy recently has instead been spent developing this system for myself over the last 10 months, when I decided enough was enough.

Though someone I’ve met through this system decided that I needed and deserved that console and kindly bought the bundle for me – so what did launch day look like for me?

It sat, set up on my side all day, untouched. Normally, it would be the highlight of my year – but instead? I spent most of the day working on Gamify Your Life. That’s how passionate I am, and why I think investing in something you believe in is paramount. Believe in your goals, and trust your gut.
