Hello!

I thought I would introduce myself here, I'm still reading through the MFL book, but I feel like I've learned so much already.

I'm 24, recently married, and live in the north east of England. I'm currently studying Computer Science, and although software engineering jobs can be well paid, I'll never reach financial independence in a job, and I want to make an actual impact in the world, not fulfil some unnoticed role in a company.

I'm currently working on three projects, and was hoping to get some feedback on what people think about them, that way I can pivot if necessary and create something people actually need.

Project 1: 'EasyPay', it's an online invoicing service for freelancers, with very low transaction fees and a simple interface. Simply enter invoice details, send the URL to your client, get paid. I earn a small fee per transaction. It's fully built and ready to launch.

Project 2: 'Word of Mouth', this is just in the idea phase, but I've made a video outlining the idea. One thing I've noticed when deciding to out somewhere with my wife is that it's difficult to decide what to do just browsing websites like TripAdvisor. However, it's much easier to make a decision if a family member or friend recommends somewhere. The purpose of the website would be to recommend activities/places to eat/hotels/movies/etc based on what your friends (and people with similar interests) like.

Project 3: 'SevereStudios App', this is fully implemented and is ready to launch. It's an android app which lets users access the live streaming service offered by SevereStudios. I'm working with the owner of the website, he has 60k twitter followers and almost 95k followers on Facebook. The plan is to offer a free app, with paid extra features.

Is there anything I can do to increase my chances of success with these projects? Any thoughts on other paths I could pursue to get in the fast lane?

Thank you!
