So heres a fun little story how I'm making it somewhere in life.. LOL
I had this idea back when i was 17 and back then everyone thought I was stupid and not going to make it but that didn't stop me..
Back in high school, I did anything to make a quick buck. From selling custom made snapbacks to Iphones. etc. etc. Anything i can get my hands on from my sources i can sell
So I get help from my brother and our business partners and my uncle. Its basically a 5 man team but we have multiple investors and partners.
Mostly just us 5 doing most of the work.
I go to college right for a Degree in Marketing and Management, so I took what I learn from my studies into the real world, which so far has been working out well.
So we all got together and thought, hey since we are always hungry, lets open up a restaurant! So 2 years later (20) since graduated from high school restaurant is packed everyday
even though, I'm not there at the restaurent, I'm the one whos doing most of the promotions,advertising,social media pages.
For a 20 year old, who barely has money or anything to his name I now as of today, own two cars started my own computer business, marketing manager for 2 companies in NY ( they are small but money is money) and working at restaurant from time to time. I went from making 8$ per hour at burger king to now making $1000 per month, might not sound a lot to some people but from someone who had nothing, this means a lot to me. I can pay off my tuition and student loans as soon as i graduate.
Anyone can make it, if you have the drive,motivation and love to work long nights. Go for it, don't let anyone tell you can't do it.
