151: Should you go full-time?
Manage episode 330128374 series 2464490
Over the last decade the grappling industry has seen an influx of athletes forgoing traditional employment to pursue the life of a full-time jiu-jitsu competitor. I can't lie, it's cool gig. You get to spend your days training, travel the world, and get giant novelty checks. But there is more to the BUSINESS of the Jiu-Jitsu game than being underneath the bright lights of PPV events or IG Posts with overused quotes. You need to have and plan to make a living for yourself because the industry is cutthroat. This week, Nico and I give you the cold hard truth of what it's like going "full-time" in BJJ, so that you can make a conscience decision on whether it's right for you. - MUSHMASTER
