I’ve been off the forum for some time, and I now I’m stuck.

“Whats going on?” You might ask.

Well. I have this idea, and I’ve been executing on it, but I need some money to keep moving forward, and I don’t have money! And my family would normally support me, (I’m a teen so I don’t really have money of my own) but we’re having a little bit of trouble, and they can’t.

So, I’ve been coping a lot and playing video games and watching YouTube a lot more, but I’m sick and tired of it.

But I keep finding myself going back to it, and this family problem isn’t going to end anytime soon.

Luckily, this place offered to hire me in a few weeks, for a little over minimum wage, and if I do this job, I can make enough money to start my business. If they hire me within the next week, I can make around $600 a week.

I’ve also thought about just running my own lawn mowing business, but there’s already 4 companies in my area doing that which legit cover every house for cheap, same for every other side hustle.

I think my game plan should be get the job, and invest my paychecks. With school 5x a week, I can work the job 1-2x a week, and make $120-250 a week which would be more than enough.

I’m curious what others have to say, so if you have a minute, please give your opinion.

Thanks,
-John
