    See that's what happens when parents build you up instead of tear you down.
  • @SonjaDawn
    Parents who believe in you, is the greatest support you can ever have!

    If you are reading this, you are about to walk into some BIG things

    “The main reason people struggle financially is because they have spent years in school but learned nothing about money. The result is that people learn to work for money but never learn to have money work for them”

    Not everyone has an entrepreneur mindset but those who do should not be stopped at an early age.
  • @DontSleepOnEm
    After seeing these TEENAGERS build MILLION-DOLLAR businesses from a young age..The amount of SELF-DOUBT in the comments is disturbing. "YeAh EaSy FoR tHeM bEcAuSe [insert weak excuse here]" Don't over-estimate others' abilities and UNDER-estimate yours. SELF-DOUBT IS WHAT KILLS DREAMS
  • @Arkipads29
    Business should really be taught in school at an early age.
  • I will definitely start my own business this year. I've always wanted to be an entrepreneur. My stepdad was/ is the only person who believes I could do it. He ask me all the time, "Boss lady, when you're getting started?" This is my moment.

    I dropped out at 15 had my son at 17 became a business owner at 17 in the wedding industry & published and awarded vendor in Texas ❤️
  • @1-800-DIAMOND
    okay, I regret watching this. Idk if I’m motivated or if I feel like I’m not doing anything with my life.
  • "go to any class room and say you're starting a business, you'll be laughed at" SO TRUE, even when you're home schooled.😌

    I’m 18 and own a restaurant. When I first told my good friend she started asking tons of questions like do you know the laws regarding this and this and how are you going to do this and that and better find out how this and this is done and have you thought about it clearly and like, her tone was just very unsupportive and I knew right away that she didn’t believe I could do it. Same thing with other people. Like when I go to the bank and tell them I’m an entrepreneur and came here in the name of my company, their faces already say that they don’t believe it. Yeah I know some ppl are genuinely worried and want to make sure you’re doing it right But c’mon. I know what I’m doing, ofc I have thought about it 🙄 Good thing my mother has always been supportive and encouraging

    Nobody becomes a millionaire or a billionaire by working for others and depending on them, good investment bring millions of dollars, and consistency brings billions, the market is all about BTC at the moment now....
  • @chippyjohn1
    all these stories are the same, did It all on my own. but then you hear how the parents helped. plenty of great people out there, but when you have terrible parents that hold you back its much harder.
  • Me at 16:Closing the refrigerator door slowly so that i could see the light going off -_-
  • @ericaluke5448

    In the 5th grade, I sold my class on the fact that my run-of-the-mill pencil sharpener was of the highest quality and had kids paying me for exclusive access to it with their "Platinum Pass" XD
