User has multiple posts on front page daily.
Age of account, 8 months.
This user has so far shared a total of 2779* links, started a total of 14 discussions and submitted a total of 3927 comments.
2779 / 8 months / 30 days = 11.55 link submissions per day.
3927 / 8 months / 30 days = 16.36 comments per day.
This is assuming the user averages these numbers per day everyday, 7 days a week, for 6 months.
Average wpm of adept typist: 80 wpm (overall population average is 55 wpm. We will assume above average typing speed.)
Average character count per post: 200. 2.5 minutes to write post x 16.36 40 minutes per day, 7 days a week.
The 40 minutes is purely typing time, not including time to formulate responses or read other comments etc.
Analysis:
user tendies on floor posts on a 5 day average, 15 links, and 22 comments per day, every week, for the last 8 months, without a break. Average time spent on social media is 2.25 hours per day. If we tripled that to 6.75 hours a day, 5 days a week, that is a post every 30 minutes and a comment posted every 20 minutes. For 8 months. 5 days a week. No breaks. And has started 14 discussions in total.
personal interjection: most of his links are low effort trash. Its likely upvoted by bots instead of genuine users.
Conclusion.
tendiesonfloor is a hack fraud farming ccp and flooding the forum with low quality garbage and click bait posts.
reddit would ban me for this post.

Even if you open your own business, you're still working for someone else - namely your clients. But, it enables you to keep more of the profits and have more control over the business decisions.
There's all sorts of business opportunities out there. I co-own (silently, more or less) a few franchise locations with a local friend. Those are cheap to get into and make a good enough profit to live off - assuming you can get a good location.
If you're into tech, consulting is huge. Consultants make a ton of money, and have since back when I still owned my traffic modeling business. Some of them command four figures per day - and they're independent. If you're any good, that's always an option.
The other major thing I see is filling niches locally. I think more and more business opportunities are actually going to be local instead of international conglomerates. I see this locally (I'm on the local business board/chamber of commerce) with lots of small businesses making their way. In little Farmington, Maine (the closest "city" to me - about 10,000 people I think) there's a new company that's expanding and they just opened like a year ago. They make gi - uniforms for martial artists. They started with a $10,000 loan and a local distribution plan.
So, it's out there - you just need to grab it and have some good luck and dedication to working hard.
