17 year old almost out of high school, uncertain future

[Marvin]

Hey FLF users. My name is Marvin and I am seeking help in basic entrepreneurship and other accesses to big money. I have a weak GPA in high school, mainly because I am not going to a university as it'd be a complete waste of $ given my current situation. I don't even know if I'll go to college at this point. Currently working at KFC, taking as many hours as I can. I have no issue regarding physical, lengthy work, but at KFC with the health concerns and nasty environment I just wish I could move up. I am willing to go sleepless in order to build my future. I am willing to put forth money. I was sitting on my bed with a $100 iTunes gift card that my cousin gave me for free, trying to combine it with other goods for the new Xbox One, and it hit me; why am I spending all the extra $ my family has, just for some satisfaction for the next two years. I then went into business mode. I always read about wealthy mentioning going without sleep. I have no issue doing this. The problem is I have no clue what to do in the hours where most are sleeping opportunity away. I don't know if or about what I should be reading, researching, etc.

I know this probably doesn't make sense. Let me try to simplify it all. I am 17. My brother (23) works full time at a gas station making little money, my mom has been working full-time for ten years now. My dad has basically lost his ambition and drive for money, only working in real estate for over a year now.

Where do I go from here? College doesn't interest me at all. I don't and won't have the money to pay off college expenses if I just "go with the flow". I want to stay up 24 hours a day and build on my finances. I just do not understand where to go.

If it makes any sense, it'd be a miracle if I could get advice. I want to succeed and let my family relax for the first time in over a decade. I don't want my mom stressed, as she deals with a rude boss at her work and is the only parent supporting the family.

Thanks in advance, and please feel free to ask any questions,
Marvin
