I fucked up...

Shubhankar Paranjape said:
All of us go through those things, kiddo. You aren't dumb or stupid, you just are young- and guess what?

All of us learn through experiences. Even I've blown away over 10k in foolish investments yet made much more than that through other things and hustling- just because I never gave up.

Consider this as one of those things and make sure to not do something like this the next time. Especially DON'T borrow other people's money and invest in something risky.

It's all fine if the money is yours, but not others', since it would leave a bad impression of yours and they won't lend it to you next time when you are in utmost need. Remember the child and the wolf story?

Also, stop buying unnecessary stuff when you have money otherwise you'll need to sell necessary stuff when you go broke.

What you can do here for instant cash is, flip things. Buy for short, sell for large. Go for garage sells. Go for eBay deals. Go for craiglist free stuff. Things can get sold in an hour from posting.

Check the "making money" section here on BHW itself since there are so many small techniques from which you can earn big.

Follow other people's journeys and see what they are doing- what are they earning from- and simply replicate the process through their content posts. If it looks tough, learn from them personally.

And for start, follow Garyvee. You need some fiery motivation in life so you won't sulk over how stupid you are, and instead, start hustling again.

Once again, you aren't worthless- Give it a while and you'll awaken the warrior within you, eventually.

Shubhankar my brother!, How have you been, you are like the best possible mentor i could have, for real i also explained the same situation to you on whatsapp. But thank you man for being there for me. I just wanna repay you for all the lessons you have taught me and stuff. Fun seeing familiar people.

I am gonna do everything i can to set this straight, at the end of the day, i know i am gonna come out of this alive and stuff, i should see this experience as a lesson also, man i didnt know there were gonna be this many reactions, i am gonna try to respond to everybody. Thanks for not letting the fire die inside me!

There is a difference between falling and stumbling. Those that fall don't get back up, those that stumble in life, pick themselves up and have another go. You are 15, you simply made a poor choice and stumbled, you WILL get back up and you WILL keep on going.

Feels bad right now, but you will learn a LOT from this experience and grow as a man.

nah its fine bro, ive managed to find ways in a deus ex machina fashion (because of fam) to solve those debts but the experiences still kind of haunt me and i still lost the money lol. right now just keep doing you and learning. youre still young bro again i hope you can work your way through it. its all a process and i hope you develop a thick skin because of this not in a moral sense but in a sense you can get through shit when shit hits the fan; its a skill for sure.

I hope you learn the lesson. Don't lent money from other people in order to invest it. Invest only as much money as you are willing to lose.

Blaming yourself doesn't help the situation. Better ask yourself "how can I fix this problem?". A statement closes the mind, a question opens the mind.

Next I would recommend you to read the book: "The richest man of Babylon". It will help you a lot.

I will not forget this, i am gonna note that book in my list, right now i just finished reading rich dad poor dad, and "The 9-5 hour workweek"
Thank you brother.

One tip for u is : only invest the money you can afford to lose.

I don't agree. You'll never take action if you keep waiting for the safest moment. Some times you have to take risks and make sacrifices to win.
 
Man, that sucks, but like the others already have written it was a dumb mistake and you will learn from this mistake.
 
It might sound lame, but what opportunities are there in your area to help out your neighbors? Shoveling snow, mowing lawns, raking leaves? Sometimes, that is the easiest way to make money right away.

You are not dumb at all. I would say that you are much smarter than other 95% of your age kids, because you already thinking about money, you already trying to find ways how to earn money when most of the kids of your age just playing video games and posting dumb stuff to their tik tok accounts. It's just one of your mistakes in your life and trust me, there will be many more. But the best thing about it that we are learning from our mistakes. Yesterday I watched one of my favorite movies "Batman begins" and one of the quotes from that movie is perfect for you: “Why do we fall? So we can learn to pick ourselves back up.”. Good luck bro.

That is exactly what my father used to tell me aswell

It feels weird having this much attention, considering i haven't had attention like this in a long long time, cause all this time the only things i have been doing is studying, training, learning and experimenting (on new ways to make money) but when i was 13 i have had many potential business ideas, i used to sell vapes that i would buy for 50 cents for 5€ this had generated me alot of money at that age it had made me atleast 1k. But eventually the trend started dying so i did new things, i started selling zorb balls. This sold so much, i didnt even have enough stock. I sold everything on a event day in the Netherlands called "Koningsdag" but tbh after this i kind of got lazy and started experimenting less, until my dad lost his business, he used to have multiple night clubs. But he had made a mistake to change the night club to a café, and this in result made him close the clubs (he turned it into a café cause he was getting bored of the youth who came and made problems everyday, he said he was too old to mess with them, aged 50) after this had happened i started taking money more serious, but like way more serious, i always had a fear of being stuck in a job from 9-5 always wanted to have people working for me.

So there i went trying out alot of things cause this time, my family depended on me and my brother. My dad is living off government loan (dont know how it called in english) and my mother has a low wage job in a grocery store. My brother is 21 but he is lazy, he dont do shit, he is smart he learned me code and stuff. But his friends turned him into a soundcloud rapper of some sorts, this just disappoints me, considering he could have had a well paying job, but so my mother is taking care of us, with he loan of 1000 a month. The rent is 600-700 so we got almost nothing left for a month. And that's why i am trying everything i can to get our family out of this situation, even started doing illegal shit (selling knives, guns) but i stopped doing that, cause i know illegal is not gonna give you happiness.

Sorry for telling my whole life story kind of got distracted. Even though there are many more things i can tell about my life, i just want to thank everybody thats helping me out on this forum. And btw congratz to the people who read a part of my life. Sorry for making it so long.

I wish y'all a good day and many many thanks. :)

Nothing is lame when it comes to making money. But i live in the Netherlands, and there are very little opportunitys to work for neighbours or friends, well storm winds of hurricane ciara did pass NL today, and caused alot of mayhem. Maybe help some random people out. But still i dont feel good asking people for money, just gives me a bad greedy feeling. But thanks man

I've been great as usual! Just returned back few days ago from a small vacation. And Yes, Y'know I'd always be there to help and not let the fire inside you fade out. You should have told me about this investment before doing it- maybe I could have served some advice out of my own personal experiences or knowledge about that stuff. And there's no need to repay me for anything- it's my pleasure to help. Well, if you still wanna repay, do it by motivating me if I ever feel down/depressed in life and inspiring me by your own achieved successes, haha :)

And yes, you have to fix it by yourself and learn from it- push yourself to your limits and then push the limits above until they break. There's so so many fucking ways to earn and you, my boy, are a talented kid. So Obviously you can figure out a solution and make it through, without shedding a tear of sadness for being broke or in debt. It's just a matter of time and effort. Btw there's much more financial advices waiting for you once we have a conversation again :)

My father was a high better always, he had lost around 100-500k on gambling, just imagining the fact that he used to earn around 6-10k a month to getting almost nothing from goverment loans gives me a weird feeling of motivation.
 
Don't worry about your mistake kid it'll just eat at you. It's done and there's only one thing you can do now, bust your arse to make it right.

These kind of setbacks can be the making or breaking of some people. Make sure it's the making of you.

What did you invest in if you don't mind me asking, no worries if not. Just wondering if there is a way to spin it into a positive and actually use the failed investment to your advantage.

For example if it was an automation tool of some sort or trading platform you could create videos and a blog detailing how it was shit and didn't work etc

Chin up and keep going. It's not nice but remember it's only money.

The books i have read also taught me the same thing, take risks. Else you are going to be working from 9-5.

I agree with you in a sense, but using others money i dont think is good.

Then you know first-hand to never do that shit. But you're still young, so keep hustling, even if you lose some money now, you'll win big in the future.
