Hey,
thank you for a chance to tell here my story. I'm college age - 16 and have the same plans for the future as Fastlane map after reading TMF . Firstable I wanna say that I live in Poland, Europe so please don't pay attention at some English grammar and so on mistakes. I've made a process in any my earning money ideas but now I had to stop because of the parents which say that I can't do any Internet business until 18 - it's illegal here to make money on my own before having registred business and doing it is impossible before 18 (in mostly countries likely too). I had 2 ideas, both about little e-commerce - maybe it's not THAT FastLane but still.
First idea I've made: Dropshipping (no money needed to start)
My first idea was to dropship popular shoes from Chinese sellers from ebay.com to polish allegro.pl (something like ebay/amazon etc. - the only and the biggest site like that in Poland). Idea and performance was great. In month I've made average polish sallary dropshiping only 3 types of shoes - kinda good, right? It was cool to know I'm earning more money than my teachers, working +/- 40min/day.
The performance was simple - someone buys shoes on allegro.pl -> I buy the same shoes at ebay.com paying 1/2 Allegro's price
Why I ended with this? I wanted to try something new and increase experiance- maybe not that good at salary but simply something other and new.
So my second idea: Selling snapbacks all over the Europe
Anyone from Europe could buy my snapback but tbh 95% of buyers were German. I bought at first on Alibaba.com 50 pcs of snapbacks with a sign at the unit price $5.6 and selling for 20EUR. There were other sellers on eBay doing this, selling even for 10EUR but they all had that kind of a snapback in one color in their offer - black - I ordered on Alibaba to do them in color burgundy, waited 2,5 weeks to be made and shipped for me and it started. Sales was great, even better as with my first idea, so I was REALLY shocked. Innovation made!
My mom found out about these my actions because of transaction history of my debt card and that's why I had to end with these.
In that time I really learned much more than anytime of my life.
Now I have few ideas to do just after reaching 18 and have fun with taking action
Thank anyone for reading this and feel free to comment below, I wanna know your thoughts about it
