[Journey] Get Rich or Die Trying

I am 20, from a 3rd world country, and currently making 2000-5000$ per month (The average salary in my country is 500$). My family is also running a fruit/vegetable shop where I help them for 6 hours a day, so I secured the house and food without paying a dime. Want to increase my income to 5,000-10,000$ till end of the 2023. Will be updating this once per month or two just to keep track.
dude youre the inspiration for most who just fake their thing!
and making so much in 34 world country (i also belong to one) is just awesome, i will suggest to spend money in lands or golds its a good choice for futre.
and if ya looking for an apprentice or something then i am ready to come under you XD
 
The most important lesson of your career is this: Drop all of those online things except 1.

You're making the rookie mistake of doing too many things. You will never make big money like that.

I do 1 thing, and only 1 thing.

Hyper focus on 1 thing and you will be able to scale it 25x

Choose 1 thing and scale that. You'll grow FAST if you do that.
The thing is i run an anime site, i build an network of volunteers on it, they re usually 14-20 teens and i treat them very nicely (Buy them games etc), so they are willing to help me on my other websites etc, for example now i will start 4 youtube channels and 2 of them are going to help me edit the videos, one to translate my script from serbian to english so for video that someone takes 20h to make it will take me 2h because i got all the help.
what freelance you do? graphic design?
Creating websites
Good Luck. Maybe hire a virtual assistant to expand your business.
Will in future
Please Ignore each and everyone asking you to leave your family fruit shop , honestly they lack family respect and morals...... In life family comes first before any other things and is nice that your family business is progressing

Yes you can search for good additional workers, monitor they works before employing them fully. The good thing in hiring a worker is that, all employers has the power to hire and fire

hould you hire additional workers and they fail, just fire them and keep trying. you will surely find a good workers

and last: Don't Leave Your Family FruitShop. keep working and keep assisting

Am From Africa. Is a blessing to keep up with the family business, is a much blessing to assist our parents, here in Africa value and family system comes first.

Cheers to your Mum and Dad and keep working for them please
Of course, my loved ones come first i don't care about money, as long as they're healthy, unfortunately western countries and new generations lost every family value and sadly it's happening in my country as well, but none of my problem they will come to regret it on their own when the time comes.
1k from betting it's really good, no taxes on betting income. Do you have your own strategy or it's matched betting ?
I have my own strategies, will soon even start my vip group since several people on reddit contacted me wanting to pay me for my tips etc.

I am actually creating an ebook that will be being sold here and i have really really great idea on how to promote it and i think it can generate thousands of sales, i will make an affiliate program on here and give out an guide on how to advertise the ebook to make huge money on it.
 
You're smart af to have achieved all this at 20, even if you lived in 1st world those still are amazing results at that age... and yea in 2nd-3rd world nation, it's even better. I'm also from 2nd world and people would only dream to have 5000$ a month income here lol, that's like high level manager's salary in giant company or maybe even CEO...

What was your firs biz idea and in general how did you stumble on "online biz" instead of going 9-5 rout or traditional biz? most likely you experienced some failures 1-2nd year right? so what kept you going instead of, like most people, giving up, procrastinating and playing vidya/watching YT whole day or something like that while saying "eh I'm still teen, will work hard in my 20s-30s" lol

Also do you plan to invest the money in future? like in real estate, stocks, crypto, etc? or so far what's your long term plans with money?

Good job and good luck

Tbh i was watching first 15 episodes of naruto tv show when i was like 6, on cd, and i remembered the show when i was 15 and i wanted to see what happened in it and them entirely watched naruto and started my anime streaming site which now grew to be biggest anime site in balkans, after that with 15 i stubmled on watch ads to get paid and sites like paidverts promising you 20% roi etc and iwas so hyped that I'd save all my money i was getting from my parents back at the time and putting it in get paid to watch ads sites and got scammed several times untill i turned 16 learn some lesson amd stop going into that, at 16 i was still earning a lot and at 17 started my english manga site that grew to get 30-50k visitors a day and 150-400$ a day had to shut it down, thru 16-18 was also doing a lotof instagram stuff. Long term plans are to make my ebooks that i will sell and advertise, runf ew cpa offers w paid in page push and notification ads, few youtube channels amd few other income streams, trying to automate them as much as possible, short term plans will vary on investments but if i start getting some big cash i am thinking of building apartments or airbnb mansions

That's good, bro. Leverage that and keep doing things you enjoy. Absolute money isn't everything.. It's far better to make $50k/mo doing something you love than $500k/mo doing something you hate.

But, you still want to leverage. If you can do something in 2 hours instead of 20, then that's GREAT, but that doesn't mean you should then do other projects with the time. Do 3-4x more with the youtube, because you're going to get compounding effects.. This is the key

You must compound in business.

I'm 40, and I could go from nothing, no money, to $10k/mo within 2-3 months. Why? Because of compounding. I couldn't make money in the stockmarket, or running a hotel, or running a hot dog stand.. I have no experience and skills within those. What I do have is compounded skills related to SEO, copywriting, ads, digital sales, online brand building, writing, making digital products. All that came because of going deeper and deeper within the 1 field over years.

If you go deep within 1 thing you get so good at it that you can effortlessly make money, and that's when you'll be able to start doing $50k/mo in something you love.

You end up with 1+1+1 = 10, instead of 1+1+1=3 if you do 3 separate things.

Choose the path of mastery :-) It leads to both effortless profits, and effortless satisfaction. Mastery is golden. It's one of the keys to ultimate happiness in life. There's nothing like the feeling of mastering your craft. (Although philosophically speaking, you never master anything, you just stay on the path of mastery, but it's that path that leads to a great life)

I understand that, it's just that i already know too much information, because from age 16-18 every day i'd read like 5-10 paid e-books/courses/wso on various online topics along with talking with various people trading secret strategies + my own experience, i am currently trying to totally master few subjects and got plans that I am heading towards, currently i will try to get 20-30 people to volunteer on my money sites/stuff/channels (Hence i am recruiting even more volunteers on my anime site)
 
Heads up for being a considerate son and best of luck to scaling your business :)
 
Good Luck man and looking forward for your updates. Let's hope for the best

Your reply is very helpful to me, thank you.
 
The question is - how stable is your setup? IM is changing rapidly, ai is coming all around. Don't put all egs in one basket. Scale to the moon and then help you family.

Chill buddy don't be so paranoid
 
I was wondering how you registered with bhw in 2004? You were only 1 year old in 2004. In that case, did your family register on the forum for you? :eek:
I am an early bird, started im 22 years ago
 
People in 1st world countries don't understand how we value community and the elderly, taking care and living with parents is a big deal since we don't want them to go to elderly homes
 
UPDATE:
As said, as I launched a lot of stuff in July, July was quite an amazing month, from 10th July to now made 4,000$ so 4k$ in 13 days.
Around 50% was from Freelancing, 30% from Books, and another 20% from other sources.
Next month planning to scale it up since i hired a VA to grow me 150 Reddit accounts that i am going to sell we will sell them for 15-20$ each and he will get 5$ of each sale so I am left with 10-15$.
Next month also scales up Freelancing and Canva selling on social media, creating a few other books as i had amazing responses for the first 2.
Going to open several ig.tiktok.youtube shorts account for Mindset reels with some of the teens from my Anime site.
At beginning of the August I will start learning Forex and at the end open my Anime shop which should do really well as we already have a site with 10-50k visitors.
Anyway, that's the update, and I am very happy with the results that I achieved, and I think I will be able to reach the goal of 10k$ per month till the end of 2023, will save up money for buying an abandoned house then renovate and resell it hopefully till the end of the year. Also made great progress in the gym. Cheers.
