Clayplug Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago Hey, I'm pretty sure this is allowed because I'm an Advertiser and Scripter I, but if this isn't, lmk mods. I'm writing a full-length ebook about how to build a legal botting business from the ground up and leverage it to get a high paying job with benefits in a field you like. I used to be a homeless dude sleeping in my car until I got in a car accident and was left with just a phone, but thanks to having Clayplug LLC on my resume and actual skills, I pulled myself out of that circumstance. This is my story of how I did it. [Sample From Introduction] I was at the top of my world in college, and lost it all through arrogance and lack of self-management. Then it got worse. Everything changed when the Pandemic hit. Locked in the hyperbolic time chamber (a room at my dad's apartment) for years, I taught myself software engineering through the sheer will to play OldSchool Runescape at higher levels that I could never get to. I had tumors in my arms which made manually playing the game very painful. I lucked up a philosophy degree and math minor which was useful because all programming is formal logic wrapped in human language, which we were required to learn in both philosophy and mathematics in college. To make the game physically accessible to myself and to cover my liabilities and move in relative privacy, I started a programming LLC from scratch I learned production-grade programming through just figuring out OSRS botting before ChatGPT was even out and putting out free scripts that thousands have used. I was able to put it on my resume and apply to jobs. Then I ended up at a Fortune 500 company as a contractor. I signed a two year contract. The tech layoffs hit six months later, and all the contractors in my teams were let go without severance. I ended up homeless for most of that year. I pulled myself up from just having a phone, to getting a job, laptop, and place to live. Now I'm at a job where the stakes are high, and I need to get money outside of my organization to invest into it. So I'm coming back to the botting world and changing my business model from being a private scripter to being an educational content creator and teaching how you can legally get into the OSRS botting market, start up an LLC you can put on your resume, learn enough programming to get an actual job, and then move into different avenues for software or content (or go further, at your own risk) with your LLC. In this interactive ebook, I will help you get everything you need assuming you have a laptop, or even a phone.

Cybersecurity topics, to which I've been heavily invested in for many years now. I think once you find your niche and have enough insights to share, writing enough to create a book comes easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
