What will you do when AI replaces your job? What happens when your company reorganizes and your role vanishes—or worse, when you're laid off because you're suddenly deemed irrelevant—while others have already mapped their next move? If you don’t act now, you'll be at the back of the line—and nothing will be available when the music stops.

According to The Economist, AI’s impact mirrors that of the steam engine on blue-collar workers: rapid, sweeping, and relentless.

While you’re hesitating, others are building their safety net—starting businesses, buying into franchises, or investing in scalable side hustles that aren’t tied to corporate job security. When disruption hits your lane, the last thing you want is to be at the end of that recovery queue—powerless, overlooked, and without options.
