either learn to leverage a skill you already have and figure out a way to get paid off of it, or learn a new skill you can leverage for $ later on.
Donât be like my momâs boyfriend and refuse to make money. Entrepreneurship is a strange puzzle, embrace it for the sake of learning how people are âdoing business on youâ in the rest of life. Investigate an industry you like. Learn how it operates, what factors influence changes, and who the best players in the space are. be curious!
do some ecom or if youâre rly bold learn how to sell irl. I promise itâs not rly that hard, just donât be afraid of ppl not wanting whatever u got. This project will teach u a lot about urself. Good luck!

I graduated with a degree that i def shouldâve applied to grad school with - instead I went right into the workforce and hated where I ended up so I just started to upskill and build a modest portfolio of any kind of work I was skilled at to get a job.
I for sure hit up old friends from college to help me network and find something that fit and itâs paid off - you really do have to light a fire under your own ass and look at people in a very transactional light as far as giving you resources/time/opportunity and be hopeful and perhaps delusional enough for it to work
donât treat this as a temporary thing, donât get lost in the sause!

Option 1: Be fucking amazing. Like, top 5% at Yale with a pile of extracurriculars amazing. Find a nonprofit that wants to pay you real money to do good. A few of them do exist.
Option 2: Start your own business. Work hard at it. Convince rich people to invest in you, but don't use that as an excuse to take it easy, you have to build something valuable enough that they give you a million dollars for 10%, rather than $10k for 50%. You should expect to go quite a few years without making any money. And then, eventually, you'll be rich. You might have to sell the business to corporate America... and they might want you to stay on, you'll have to either turn that deal down or negotiate it into something you can manage.
Option 3: Somehow strike it rich in Hollywood. Does that count as corporate america to you?
Option 4: break the law. Steal money, deal drugs. That kind of thing. THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE AND I AM NOT YOUR ATTORNEY.
Option 5: Make super rich friends who want to give you money to exist. This doesn't really happen unless you are looking on a sugar baby dating site.

definitely not!
Speaking from personal experience - I went from totally fucking off (working like 10hrs a week) to working as a carpenter for years. Then I got interested in random shit online and made the leap from carpentry to working in marketing/jack of all trades for tech experiments and companies.
I was 25 when I made the leap from carpentry to what I do now. I had no clue what the fuck was going to happen. I just felt like it was the right leap to make.
