Advice for business timing

[Yair]

Hey all!

I am considering to start an e-commerce business next to my studies. At the moment I am working at restaurant as a side job, but it always makes me frustrated that I can't scale the wage up, and I would love to learn about running an e-commerce business such as drop shipping. I think the skills I will learn with it will valuable to me for a lifetime as I want to become a Fastlaner. However, in 4 months I will go to Asia to conduct my internship for my studies and I will go to some remote places often without wifi, this means I won't be able to continue the e-commerce business, so I will need to sell it or just stop
in 4 months. What are your thoughts on this, is it wise to start an e-commerce business at the moment, or better to wait for when I finished my internship?
I would love to hear any suggestion or feedback.
Thanks!

EXECUTION  Thread 'Is E-Commerce still Alive for 2022 / 2023 and How To Make it a Fastlane Success !!!'

Nov 1, 2022

November 2022: Is e-commerce a viable business to start today?

We need a definitive explanation and answer as a new thread. I’m nominating @NeoDialectic , @fastlane_dad duo to start, and then every insider who’s in this line of business. I’ll chip in with my own thoughts as a complete outsider.

The question was brought up if 'e-commerce' is a viable business to start today.

I'm sure my take on this will be slightly different then even @NeoDialectic but I'll try to sum up my perceptions of where it is today.

IMHO - e-commerce as a business is still just as great...

ASSERTION SIDE HUSTLE SOCIAL MEDIA  Thread 'DO NOT DROPSHIP - advice from a dropshipper'

Dec 14, 2023

If you're a younger entrepreneur like me, you might be drawn to start a dropshipping business. With how easy it is, and how many videos there are online about it, it seems like a strong candidate for your first entrepreneurial venture. This post will be about why I would strongly recommend against getting into it.

I'm going to write this as if it were a letter to my younger self.

Quick background:

• I've started four dropshipping businesses and worked with one other
• I went viral on TikTok many times, with the most successful video gaining 2.5 million views...
