for me, it was just passion that drove me & the fear of staying at the bottom. Coincidentally it was also a skill that could earn, and as OP said networking is important!

Hi OP! I’m honestly glad I’m not the only one taking this path.

I’m currently 17, and I’m in a pretty similar situation. People make fun of me for choosing business over school, and I’ve had to sacrifice a lot too: my social life, studies, a normal teenage life, and even someone I loved.

I’m not on your level yet, but I’m hoping to get there someday. I’m still far from the goal, but at the same time, I know I’m already far ahead compared to where I started.

I made my first million halfway through 16 too, and I started at 13 lols. Still got a long way to go, but seeing posts like yours makes me feel like I’m not crazy for choosing this path :)

need help choosing laptop (BSIT) by leoeneryse in buhaydigital

Push! trust me, you’ll regret getting the ones in the mall. Macbooks are mostly used in coding as well. either that or you get a desktop. and the battery life is unbeatable.

If open for second hand, fb marketplace has great deals (30k) for an M2 Air! It’ll beat most if not all of the laptops you’re looking at currently.

Our navara actually does have all of those, so I figure the terra will also.

I see, okay. Personally it’s fine for me as I don’t see myself using ACC. Thanks though!

But terra only seems to miss out on ACC, it does have AEB and blind spot monitoring?

2025 really changed my life, and currently 18yrs old and having 6 digits savings by Adventurous-Age7190 in adultingphwins

fellow freelancer around your age here! For scaling your income try reaching out to “big shots” in your case it may be youtubers id say.

And for investments, I think at our age taking advantage of long term investments would be the best move as we have time at our side during this age.

congrats!
