Thanks, and reducing in general unfortunately @KajiKita, all my friends in freelance writing are saying the same- chatgpt has nicked so much work as people would rather have a shoddier website or promo material or explainer script than pay someone. We're the luddites of this era 😥
Cheers @Sun_Addict, they're probably waiting till you're retired so you'll more likely be in when Agent Million pops round
Excellent win for you too @dawnybabes, whatcha spending it on?
Very much so @redofromstart!1 -
Congratualations on your PB win. A nice amount to win of course the million would be better0
