Hello to whoever reads this!
I'm a 21-year-old trying to navigate the path my future will take. I come from a lower/middle-class family, the way I'm currently living feels like a potential nightmare if it shapes my future or the resources I can provide for my future children. I understand you might wonder why I'm thinking so far ahead, but with many of my peers progressing in their lives and graduating university, I can't help but consider my own trajectory. I want to build a name for myself, and in this era of high living costs, a normal job might not suffice. It seems like nowadays the only wealth that lasts is being born into generational wealth, which I wasn't born into and so now I've gotta think outside the box.
Now, during my university break, the idea of starting a business or venturing into e-commerce (specifically, dropshipping) has been on my mind. However, navigating this market proves challenging, given the advice, some say “dropshipping is dead” while others sell their courses. It's a bit overwhelming, and I'm left wondering where to start and who to trust for authentic guidance. Ultimately I aim to invent and launch a brand, my current wage feels inadequate for such goals. Therefore, my plan is to build my income before diving into the challenges of running a business.
I find myself at a crossroads, uncertain about the best path forward. I'm determined to make money, so any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Help a person out.

Why get an MBA? I can’t wait to finish my bachelors and focus on the entrepreneurial ventures I have running through my mind 24/7. College is great for focused studies but business students… IMO a bachelors is all that is necessary

You may possibly want to become a consultant. its padding, and you are already there.
