Right after i graduated from college, I moved to LA with my ex gf. Neither one of us had jobs and combined, we had $3,000 saved. We drove from PA to California in about 5 days, then lived in this dumpy apartment in downtown LA for a few months.
I tried working some jobs, then decided I would just start my own SEM/PPC business and do adult stuff at the meantime. I worked for 2 big SEM firms for about 2-3 months each to figure out how they worked, then started working for myself just over a year after I first moved to LA.
Recent risk I took was to move back to PA for a bit to help out with family stuff, as well to save some money (rent in LA is expensive). its paying off ok, but cant wait to get back to sunny california
