Time for another episode of The Germany Expat Business Show Mailbag!

This time I’m sharing a question from Nutan Jaeger.

Nutan is a trained architect turned writer who moved to Munich with her German husband. She was laid off from her job and has worked as a freelancer in Germany before but always stayed under the mini-job level and making enough to cover taxes and insurance.

Should she exploring business ideas as side hustles and see what takes off? OR Should she create a business right away?
