ACTION FAKING as a Teenager???

[lolman123]

I'm a 16 year old boy who is an aspiring entrepreneur and would obviously love to start REAL ACTION by making the Fastlane business (people who have read Unscripted would know). But I obviously can't since I'm too young to sign LLC Papers, Contracts, Accountants and physically make the business, as well as having ZERO knowledge in the real world (haven't encountered real life problems). So my question for you is what things should I do (until I'm old enough) which isn't action faking? (I don't want to be a wantrepreneur)

Not saying that you should necessarily do this, but do you think that if you knocked on your neighbours door and asked if they wanted you to wash their car (or any other simple service) they would wonder what Contracts, Accountant and formal business registration you have?

No they wouldn't. They would just say 'Yes' or 'No'.

Now the ball is back in your court as they say.

I doubt they are worried about LLCs.

And they accept Venmo.

If you are going digital and your products becomes very successful you might have to invoice through your parents license or someone you know. Thats what I did when I was younger.

If you get paid in cash then just get paid and dont worry.

Bro, idk if this is allowed where you live but get a parent to sign on your behalf.

You also shouldn’t be worrying about LLC, like what Mj said.

Do you even have a problem you could solve?

Have you asked people about that idea yet?

Do you have enough capital for that business?

Does it fulfill CENTS?

You’re thinking like 45 steps ahead, Im pretty sure where I live, im order to get a patent, and file your company it’ll cost like $5000.

I don’t know where you’ll get that money from.

If you don’t have an idea, do like a lawn care service or window washing, just do something to make money.

During that think of an idea, if you don’t already know, listen for key words like Hate, Wish, Dont Like, Too Hard etc.

Once you have an idea, you’ll have some capital.

Ask people what they think, if they all tend to like it, throw it at CENTS, if it’s good then start it.

One step at a time, any kind of step in the right direction is still turning action faking into action making.

Until then, good luck, lol man.

Simply start doing something that could potentially either solve a problem someone has, or will teach you a skill that will help you solve problems that someone could have. You could start doing something for example related to software development, graphics or anything physical or just about anything that will have you creating something.
I may not have that much knowledge or experience for you to listen to my advice, but I have went from being a kid that plays games 24/7 and doesn't how any skills to a web developer, by learning everything completely on my own by simply creating something (in my case those were games, that taught me how to program, manage a small team, plan and much more).
Good luck on your journey!
