What age is everyone?

[OccultKingdoms]

Can't really go wrong in getting academical education.
Just go with something that truly interests you.

1. I didn't like school.
1.1. I didn't like culture around here.
1.2. Traumatic.
2. I am on the left side of some IQ charts (below 100).
3. I am easily frustrated / emotionally unstable.
4. I don't speak English in "spoken" (mouth way) daily, so I can't go to another country to study in another, less weird way.

It can go wrong, especially if you think it's gonna be easy like I would want it to be. And you don't have backup plan if your education fails.

I also remember when I was 15. Youtube methods and spam bot(before youtube switched to google account system, I'd run through 1,000 YT accounts per day.(that I'd buy from here) YouTube used to have a main navigation bar link for "most discussed", I'd bot my own video to the top, get thousands of natural views before it was deleted, and make about $750 in affiliate sales in one 5 hour run. Was different times. One of my iframe capmpaigns was so massive, YouTube had to change the code of the homepage to break my iframes. Those methods failed when I bought a batch of accounts on here that were hacked instead of hand made, belonged to other people rather than just new emails and random usernames, their legal team contacted the affiliate network.

I wish instead of quick and dirty temporary methods that I had done then, I started building niche sites then, even just some small ones, by the time you're my age, if you have 100-150 niche sites made over 10 years(totally doable, also can just sell niche edits with that many even if not a lot of affiliate sales), with a little rev from each, and aged domains, it will be a lot of money total. Start now, you'll be happy later.

In my opinion, it's just plain stupid to put yourself in to debt to get a degree if you're not even sure it will help you later in life. A degree isn't a guarantee of success. Not saying that college is never a good idea, but it's not exactly a no brainer either, especially if they live somewhere where college is not an easily accessible option.

Just saying, "go to college" without any other information is not the best general life advice for someone, just like "go into business" isn't good advice either.

I can't really take an opinion on the debt thing.

I very fortunately live in a country where all studies are free by law. If I get the chance to educate myself to a degree that can cost hundreds of thousands in other countries, it's a pretty no-brainer for me to grab on to that offer.

I don't know the cost of college in OP's country, but I'd still bet my money on the guy who goes to get a degree on a subject that they truly are interested in, rather than the guy who starts a business at 18.

I'm also pretty biased in my thinking about this topic since I live in a country where a high education means a LOT. Our education system and the job market is structured in a way that very, very much leans towards people who have the highest degrees. It's rather hard to make any good money here if you don't amass any academical background.

I can't really say on OP's behalf what the situation regarding academical education is in his country, but still, I would never guess that that would be the worse choice. It's just not logical to me that an 18-year old should put all his faith into making it in business, which statistically speaking, is most likely not going to happen. Most entrepreneurs who make it big, make it at 40+ years old.

If you aren't going to statistically make it in your youth, why wouldn't it be the wiser choice to lean for the more stable choice of education?

Said self made millionaire at 19!

Not a millionaire yet, but hopefully soon!

It can go wrong, especially if you think it's gonna be easy like I would want it to be. And you don't have backup plan if your education fails.

My life is all over the place and hence I wouldn't go to any college until it's sorted as I would get suboptimal results with my current problems.

I can't speak on behalf of everyone. There will always be the extreme cases.
For the average person, it is, in my opinion, the wiser choice to choose education over gambling at business.

Nothing to gamble if you are already homeless. No way to fail. Extreme security of having nothing.

If you aren't going to statistically make it in your youth, why wouldn't it be the wiser choice to lean for the more stable choice of education?

Because you're living in 3rd world country and you feel like $50 you make makes you rich and you want to pursue $500 and it goes on and on.

For people who are poor, IM and business outside of their country feels like goldmine. SImple.

Well, it sets you back in other areas...

socially you become awkward cause you churn these sites all day long...
financially you're doing better but you burn all the money as you don't know how to manage it, nobody taught you, afterall your family is poor...
education you forget about cause you can't do so much stuff being young...

But you're gambling your future success.

If you're homeless, wouldn't you want to choose the more stable and likely way of getting out of that homelessness?
That option is education.

Getting yourself enough money to get yourself good food and a roof over yourself is a lot more likely to happen with academical background rather than with business, unless you have prior experience of course.

Such person is living in such unstable fashion, they just can chaotically organize their life.

They jump from job to job, from school to school, they have problems focusing.

Their brains get wired to living in chaotic shit.

I have to reorganize every thought in my brain due to living in conditions like that.

I literally could sleep in a forest and have no problems with it. Normal people would feel like going crazy and feel immediately endangered.

These people can't think long term as their minds are focused on immediate survival.

You turn into an animal in certain conditions.

Considering what you've written it's fair that education would be a safer bet where you live, which would make your advice more fair. The problem is just that it's not universal.

For a lot of other people college would be too expensive and put them in debt that could massively hamper them. Not to say that going straight into starting your own business is the only other option. People can also try getting a job and then building additional revenue streams in spare time until they are stable enough to not have to work a regular job.

If you're homeless, wouldn't you want to choose the more stable and likely way of getting out of that homelessness?
That option is education.

How many homeless people do you see in education?

I will start learning how to build nieche site

I've never really enjoyed seo but for me it seems like the only route to go to make stable money

Not really. Example: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/any-idea-on-what-happened-to-shaun-marrs-and-niche-safari.1485485/#post-17626673

You can make stable money with it if you are able to keep with their updates and develop some business around SEO like selling links for businesses interested in SEO.

Don't focus on one traffic source cause you'll be dragged by it. Focus on making money, be it with Twitter, Google, Instagram or YouTube.

Get your marketing right. Keep the traffic for yourself using email lists, discord / telegram channels etc.

SEO is no different than YouTube these days. It was better a decade ago. Today it's mostly valid for real, high value businesses imo. Google is willing to rank you higher if you provide good products and services as real business instead of an affiliate.

I think PPC would be easier these days than SEO. Results are mostly immediate.

Also consider that on social media and PPC you can test something and next day you know if it will get banned / ranked / boosted by algorithm. On Google it takes months to test one thing and even then you're not sure as another update is in place.
