Hello everyone,

I really need some advice. What would you have done in my situation?

I started businesses that worked well for a while, then I closed them to start studying.
My studies were disastrous, I hate this lifestyle of learning useless things (I took business at university), people who drink and who don't want more in life.

I couldn't bear going from entrepreneur to that, so I quit.

Now I work in a rich European country, two days a week for about $2,000 a month as a salesman. The two days are stuck together, which allows me to have the week off and travel to the cheaper countries around (France, Germany, etc.).

My question is, I don't want to end up a salesman for the rest of my life: what should I do?

I'm pretty good at programming, but it's not a passion.
I just want to do business, but I'm afraid it'll never get off the ground and I'll end up as a salesman.

What would you have done?

Thanks in advance!
