Need Some Honest Advice

Well you're on an IM forum so use the resources here to learn and get started.

But also I heard of this really cool idea recently that gets money faster. 100% PROVEN MONEY MAKING METHOD. A job can help you make money lol. Work at a grocery store or some other easy places where they let kids work
 
I don’t feel sorry for you! You’re just comparing yourself with others and all you’ve said are first-world problems like not having the shiniest, latest, most expensive stuff.

I grew up in a place you can’t even imagine without the most basic things you are granted.

If you need money and are ready to give your 100% to make it happen, it just means that you truly belong here.

Here is the place for people who hustle, for people who rise from the ground, for people who make things happen.

Don’t hang around this section “Make money” though as there is not much to learn here.

Go read journey threads, because there lies some gems. And by reading successful journeys, you’ll see what you can do with what you have.

But if you’re here waiting for people to spoonfeed you, go flip burgers. There is money to be made too in the fast food restaurants of your area.

Either way, good luck ;)

P.S: If you want to live a good life, stop comparing yourself to anyone. Each person has their strengths and their flaws. Having the nicest or the latest stuff won’t fulfill you. Only your inner self will make you really happy.
 
Solid advice from bhw members right here.

1. Try to learn not to compare yourself to other people. It's not easy to do this at your age, but I can't tell you enough that this will put you in a better place and you'll be much happier in life.

2. Start investing in yourself right now. One of my regrets is that I should've started earlier. Learn new skills online and there are ways you can make money without any initial investments, like blogging (free platforms) or working as a freelancer.

3. Change your mindset from consuming to creating. Highly important! A lot of people who're making good money can actually choose to spend on all the latest gadgets, expensive clothing, vacations etc, but they're not (unless it's a hobby)! When you've succeeded in creating something and providing value, that's what will give you fulfillment. So all the things you mentioned, will only offer temporary happiness and then you'll go chasing after the latest shiny thing. Make it your goal to learn and create something, and all the material things will come as a result. But, by that time maybe you won't even desire them anymore. :) Good luck kid!
 
Focus on just one thing.
Become an expert at that one thing.
Learn from this Forum.
Grab free training wherever you can - Udemy has special offers on training - someone publishes a list of them here sometimes - grab them for FREE and learn one thing as an expert.
Learn something, anything: back end web dev, FB ads, whatever, JUST ONE THING (got it yet?) then you can be king and kick those a-holes with your earned wealth.

Now go kick some butt. (Your own to start with!)
 
One idea is niche blogging. You have a chrome book which is all you need. You can either start a wordpress site or go the route I did. I filled out swag buck surveys until I got a $25.00 Paypal gift card. Used it to purchase 2 domain names from name cheap, got free hosting from AWS - Pain in the arse learning how to set up my own servers.... hours and hours of you tube and reading but thats one more skill I have learned. Not getting rich by any means yet as I have only been at it for about 3.4 months. Made around 400 total so far, but hasn't cost me anything but time. (Probably would have been further if not teaching myself all the server related things).

It is all about drive. You have to decide if you would rather watch tv for a few hours or spend time developing your income plan.
 
Some things shouldn't bother you. You have all the years ahead of you though that doesn't mean you should not aspire.

May be you can start with filling survey, they can earn you quick money to start off.
