  • #7 Anil’s Side Hustle - How to Choose One That Pays
    Nov 11 2026

    Roy asks Anil Ramcharitar about his own side hustle and how he chooses one. Anil explains his criteria: it should suit his personality, have mass appeal, work online with global reach, and not take years to become profitable. He then describes his current involvement with portable PEMF devices and why he chose that company. Roy shares why he researched it for two weeks before getting involved, and what he has found as a user. They compare this with franchises and restaurants, which Anil considers slow or risky as side hustles. Anil explains how GOYA Mentorship works with people to choose and build a side hustle, and Roy and Anil describe how they support people across time zones.

    Disclosure: Roy and Anil are both involved in the PEMF business discussed in this episode. The views, experiences and results described are their own, and results will vary. Nothing here is medical advice. Speak to a qualified health professional about any health concern.

  • #6 Side Hustle - Why Every Business Owner Needs One
    Nov 11 2026

    Roy and Anil Ramcharitar talk about why a side hustle matters when no job or business is guaranteed. Anil says changes in technology mean no income is truly safe, and that people who rely on a single source of income are exposed if something goes wrong. They discuss choosing side hustles that connect to what you already do, so they support each other, and why referrals depend on never letting a client down. Roy shares how a downturn in property taught him to build several streams of income, and the risk of being let go in your 40s. Anil explains why an income that depends only on you showing up is a risk to your family. They finish with how to build a side hustle in small amounts of time, an hour a day or a few hours a week.

  • #5 Long Term Thinking vs Short Term Thinking
    Nov 10 2026

    Roy and Anil Ramcharitar discuss why short-term actions and long-term thinking go together in business. Anil uses the example of a farmer: you prepare the soil, plant, water and keep checking before you get the harvest. He explains why a solid foundation matters, how he sets short-term checkpoints, and why consistent daily and weekly habits compound over time. Roy asks whether network marketing has seasons, as property does, and Anil explains why he doesn’t see them. They also talk about people who start with high hopes and fade, and about not putting the cart before the horse. They finish with a point about rewarding yourself along the way, and enjoying the journey.
