Hi, my name is João Victor and i'm from Brazil, and have 15 to 16 years old (in the school system of Brazil i'm like in the medium of high scool). No, i dont speak english fluently (actualy i am using the google translate lol), so i dont read the unscripted yeat, but already readed the fastlane way of millionares (and obsviouly changed my perspective and vision about money, freedom and entepreneurship).
So... what i did (or are doing) about the financial freedom?
First i would like to score that i hate school (a lot), so think that we have thinks, likes and preferences and coercitivly the system makes we waste time with things like "grammar" or history and 15 other matters (in resume: all that is uselless because we dont have the freedom of choose). I can write a very long article about this, but, in this momment, isn't my intention...
So my first Idea about entepreunership start before i read MJ De Marco (i have like 12 years)... and it was about quantum technology, just because i I thought it was cool, in this time i just see self-help videos "how to become succesful" and etc... i was lost... there was no one to teach me things or say i'm doing it wrong. In one of these videos i saw a resume about the book of MJ (i alread read mindset of Carol Dweck to, that is the two books pilars off my life).
Exactly in this period (that is... last year literally lol) i I decided that I would learn to program because it caters to all CENTS (Although I had a desire for computer science, I had started programming before and thought it was a pain, but that MJ comment about "do what you love" convinced me) It wasn't easy because the first day I started I had to go past 23:00, I wake up every day from 4:05hrs, not because I saw a self-help video, but because my bus goes 5 hours, yes, I hate it all obviously, and it's killing me. But this hatred motivated me to try everything to get out of school and get my freedom.
On vacation I won a computer and played a lot of league of legends, but I definitely stopped (literally, I haven't played a game casually in 8 months, which is almost the time I won the computer). I studied every vacation, but almost at the beginning of class, some friends of mine convinced me to get rich with digital marketing (Yes, I fell into the get rich quick bait). I sell my Xbox one for "600 R$".
I invested 300 R$ in traffic to affiliates, and the other half in gifts ... yes I had a lot of damage, was very lay in marketing, I think I had a month of beginning in this period...
After like 3 months my He has a Krav Maga academy, but he doesn't know it and also finds it boring to do digital marketing. At that moment I realized that even though I started for the wrong reason in digital marketing ... people need it, they need someone who can build the 0 process, guide content, measure and invest correctly in traffic.
I earn 50 reais per student I bring (1 dollar = ~ 4.10 R$ reais), I earned about 400 reais in 4 months of work, even seeing courses, testing ideas ... it is difficult to reconcile with the school, I have a goal of earning 3,000 a month by the end of the year.
i will currently compete with a team at google campus in sao paulo with a donation app prototype.
Thankyou for reading
