24 and hoping to finally change it around

[spentincome]

Hey everyone,

I’m 24 and honestly have no clue what direction to take my life in right now. I went back to school for business last year after trying different online ventures that made me a bit of money, but nothing that stuck or could scale long-term.

Seeing my peers graduate and land respectable jobs pushed me to go back to school, but now I’m in my second year while everyone else is working and I’m living off money I made before. My goal has always been to become wealthy — I want financial freedom, travel, supercars, the whole thing — but I feel completely stuck on how to get there.

I’ve tried a lot:

• Selling AI solutions
• Personal training
• Running a marketing agency
• Sales roles
• Other random online hustles

None of them ever really clicked, or seemed respectable, and I just ended up quitting or losing interest. I’m not afraid of hard work — I could grind all day, every day — but I have no idea what to focus that effort on anymore.

At this point I’m stressed watching my savings shrink while feeling directionless. Has anyone else been through this? How did you figure out what to pursue or where to put your energy? Any honest advice or stories would really help. My DM's are open to chat as well.
