My name is Adrian 21 year old from Los Angeles CA, I've known all my life I wanted to be an entrepreneur and not work for someone else. My greatest childhood memory is taking a 40 pack of led pencils to class one day in the fourth grade and returning home with $40. Everyone kept asking for a pencil so I told them $1 next thing I know all gone! I did stuff like this until I was 18.

Aside from that I was also selling on eBay as well as Amazon since 14. Then when I turned 18 something happened, suddenly I had all the energy sucked out of me. I lost my path and sat around doing nothing. (Well not really, I had two jobs and was going to school) But I was doing nothing to gain my financial independence earn my freedom back. At 19-20 I was a "Success Zombie" a wantpreneur I was reading everything possible business related etc... but as you can imagine I was taking no action on this. And well we all know "I'm going to" isn't sh*t until you actually DO.

Now for the past year, I have been on my "hustle" doing Amazon FBA as well as eBay and my own website. Nowhere near the big players in the game but enough to not stress out about money. I also made some bad financial decisions at 18 getting myself into debt, buying a new car, getting a CC.... So my main focus right now is getting debt free. I still have a 9-5 in the Health Care field which I need financially plus they offer me great benefits.

Well guys I apologize for the long rant.. I will continue to grow my ecommerce while I try to find my actual fastlane I'll have some progress threads coming your way!

Welcome my friend. Your childhood story of selling pencils indicates the entrepreneurial gene is present! Thanks for the intro.
