Hi i'm Temple Emmanuel Obi from Nigeria, studying civil engineering in North Cyprus, i recently stumbled upon the millionaire fastlane and i decided to give it a try because it had such a high rating on good reads, its one of the realest books ive read in a very long time, i tried the four hour work week, couldnt finish it, it felt like the guy was all BS and MJ DeMarco confirmed it. Like so i'm kind of like a wantrepreneur, I wont say i'm an entrepreneur yet because I havent really done anything, I'm actually stuck in North Cyprus, one of the most difficult places to ever be in, language barriers,racism, backward mentality and shitty hot weather, so its almost four years now, almost done here, but like my predicament is kind of different to most of you here I assume, i mean like i want to be a Tech entrepreneur, I want to solve problems related to Africa and i'm really stranded on the way to go, like i'm studying civil engineering so i really have to programming experience, i recently started learning coding but each time you just feel like giving up because most of the books teach you the language , they dont teach you how to build things which has made it more difficult for me, I would appreciate any recommendations 
.
Plus I hear of starting businesses with 900 dollars, i mean I dont even have a dollar on me, and most jobs here pay less than 3 dollars an hour, and their so meager, so i dont do them.
Like things have been hard for my family, that's why i'm actually in this. Best advice for an ambitious and confused twenty year old whos got his whole life ahead of him.
I hope this intro wasnt too long
