4 years as VA and I still cant believe this is my life
Nag start ako as VA april 2022. Dati ako nag wowork sa fast food as a crew for 9k per month. Nakakapagod at nakaka stress. Walang growth talaga! Friend ko nag encourage sakin mag try ng VA work. Sabi nya pwede daw kumita ng dollars. Parang tunong networking sakin yun dati. Nag doubt ako pero nag try din. First year super hirap $300 per month lang pero nag push through ako. Nag improve ako ng skills at nag take ng online courses. Second year nag improve na naging $800 per month. Naka move out na ako from parents house at naka rent na ako ng sarili kong apartment. Third year $1200 na. Naka bili na ako ng laptop at naka invest na ako sa better internet. Naka travel na ako outside manila. Fourth year now march 2026. $1600 per month na!!!! I have 2 long term clients through virtual coworker. Stable at walang problema compared that to my 9k per month 4 years ago. Grabe yung growth. Never ko naisip na makaka abot ako ng ganito. Im not rich. I still worry about money. I still live paycheck to paycheck minsan. Pero sobrang layo na ng buhay ko ngayon. Im forever grateful sa VA industry. Sa lahat ng nag hire sakin sa virtual coworker for connecting me to good clients sa community for the support. Kahit mahirap kahit walang security salamat pa din. Malayo na talaga narating ko.
