So here's my current situation:

Graduated college. Didn't take a job. Decided to commit to the fastlane. Started seriously 4 months ago. Currently on track to bring in $10,000 in passive income.

Here's my problem: My friends, family, and everyone around me keeps giving me crap. They keep telling me or insisting that I'm a failure for "not getting a job", "not going to grad school", etc. Then, when I try to rationalize that I'm happy with where I'm at, and that I'm making progress, the response I get is that I'm delusional.

A typical conversation goes like this:
Them: "How's 'business' going?"
Me: "Well, my current efforts are set to bring in about $10,000, so I'm hoping to scale that."
Them: "Have you thought about getting a job?"
Me: "Yeah, but there's no point. If I grow this to $60,000 in passive income within the next couple years, then I'll never have to work again."
Them: "Hmmm...but have you applied for jobs? You could've got a $50,000 job if you tried right out of school. You might be able to get a $40,000 job now and not have to take on all that risk. What if you fail and waste two years?"

The worst is that my parents keep comparing me to my friends. "Peter got a job, and he's doing really well. You've always been better than Peter, and now you've wasted all your potential."

I try not to have this get to me, but it's really hard when each week the people you care about bring you down.

However, here's what keeps me going: I know I'd rather be a failed entrepreneur than an average employee that never tried.

Let's say I fail, and this all turns to nothing. I'll be bummed, and depressed, but to think of the opposite scenario, where I never tried, that seems even more depressing.
