My dad always says dont go into business

Has your dad accomplished what you want to accomplish? If not, he's probably not qualified to answer that.

Just because you care for someone/they care for you, doesn't mean they know all the answers.

If you want to be a clone of people you care about, follow whatever they say without thinking about it. If you don't, think for yourself.
