Hello fastlaners!
I am pretty new and i am not pretty sure this is the right category for this thread so i am really sorry if it isn't.
My name is George and the reason i am writing this i because i need advice. I am 19 years old and i am graduating from High school and i honestly don't want to start university yet (i have no idea what i want to study and i feel like i am going to throw away a lot of money). I decided that i want to do a gap year in which i want to travel starting from Hawaii and i made a friend of mine pretty keen on this idea so we took our time researching and we will most likely go. My biggest concern about this trip is that i will not have money to pay for my life and i will have to return home. This is why i need your advice.
I was wondering what i can do from any point of the world and first thing that came to my mind was dropshipping because it seems easy and i don't need to invest much money in it but i did a small research and i found out that shipping from china takes like a month and i am not really sure that people will want to buy from me.
Recently i got my hands on one of Tai Lopez's courses about creating a social media marketing agency and i watched a lot of his videos and it seems quite interesting and well- paid but since i am 19 i doubt that people will trust me and let me handle heir online marketing.
What do you think is the best thing i can do to support financially my 1 year trip. (If the "Business" i make is a able to grow and i can travel my whole life that would be just amazing)
Thank for reading this long article i hope you all have a great day!
