How do I monetize my skills?

[Trephy]

Hello everyone,

I am 15 from Europe and spent the last few years of my life learning programming and more specifically web development. The issue I'm facing is that the logical thing would be to continue to college and get a regular 9 to 5 which I am not against but just feels like a waste of time knowing the advantage I have.

Most freelancing platforms are either overrun by cheap developers or have a strict 18+ requirement. I tried on some smaller forums but people underpay to an amount so low it feels like slavery (2 weeks for $300).

If anyone has been in a similar situation or has any clue what the best move would be short and long term I'd love to hear it.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post!
