Hello everyone
23yo , immigrant from Poland, currently living in the UK , moved in 2 years ago
My interests include bodybuilding ,boxing and reading books
Have some savings from when I lucked out on crypto boom
Despite my age I lack any marketable skills and would call myself economic loser (currently working low tier 9-5 job with very limited ability to progress) , dont have a degree or any actual "hard qualifications " either.
No assets and no land/property either - I came to uk with 400 pounds
In the past two years I was selling supplements online but didnt manage to scale this operation which is dead now since a bigger company started to sell same supplements for lower price and just couldnt compete
Also tried my luck with shopify dropshipping creating niche stores but never made more than I actually spent on the ads
Did some phone/electronic flippings off gumtree and still ocassionally do it but never made much from it
I wouldnt say these 2 years were completly wasted because I learned to speak / write english very good ,met some cool people and changed physically/mentally for the better but economically I just didnt make much progress which really weights down on me since time is flying really fast and nobody is going to save me but myself.
Probably it's unhealthy but as a man much of my self esteem is tied to my social rank and earning potential , current situation causes me a lot of pain and anxiety that's why I need to fix it
Goal for now is learn a marketable skill (ppc) , find employment with it in an agency ,learn even more and then try to go on my own.
I actually tried to do it a couple months ago, learned the basics but after nobody paid any attention to my emails/CVs I kinda gave up which obviously I regret doing but just felt it's going nowhere.
Even got rejected for apprenticeship that paid close to nothing , 4 pounds per hour - really stung a bit
Sorry for a wall of text , wish all of you a great day
