I would get out of the house, and have a little business that makes money to teach yourself how to run a business.
How old are you? Any $ saved? Not needed.
You could literally make a flyer for eavesdrop, cleaning, and power washing. Make some prices and put up a website and then go door-to-door, leave flyers, and talk to people. On Facebook, say that you’ll rake peoples leaves for seven or eight dollars a bag and you’ll get lots of interest. Be personable and your other services when you get to talk to people.
When I was 15 I made it over $1000 on a Saturday doing this, then turned it into a business and hired high school friends. It was really fun and we made a lot of money. Then I realized I could do any business… now I’m 41 and own various cash flowing businesses. It’s fun.
Don’t focus on being rich, just focus on having fun and working hard towards something, and be perceptive as to what you can change to make things better along the way.
