So here is my desperate situation: i'm entering my last of 4 years at a university of economics. 3 years ago, i heard about print on demand, selling tshirt in particular from my friends, they said everyone was making lots of money from it, so i thought i would get a try, setting up some facebook ads with the money i saved and sold not a piece of sh*t. I didn't believe it could make money so i just stopped running facebook because i had only about 200$ left, after that i didn't put any real effort into making money, only hanging around looking for a method of making money online and just studied at my university on and off and watched lots of tv, porn and then masturbated.
After that i struggled with tv and porn addiction, tried lots of methods to quit (still struggling now). then about 2 years ago, i found a method of selling tshirt on instagram, they called it free traffic, so i put all of my money into this game, this was actually a success to me. I made in total about 5000$ (very big in my country) in the next 3 months i don't remember exactly. So i scaled like hell, created hundred of accounts to make more money. This was when it hit me in the face. Instagram started to blocked following and then banned lots of accounts. bumped i lost huge amounts of money to proxies and vps,... Disappointed, desperate I fell back into the old track of tv and porn addiction. Then i decided to try one again this time but no spam. Bumped still failed, instagram became too hard.
Now i'm trying to sell tshirt with pinterest, after 6 months of testing with lots of fails and very small profit. I only have now 250$ dollar (enough to cover the cost of the next 3 months of pinterest). i have 20 days more to decide that i should abandon pinterest and try something new with 250$ left or just stick with it, it's like hell because i don't know which way to go. Also i'm owing my school 500$ (one-semester fee), my dad gave me the money but i took it over the pay for the cost. Don't know when i have to pay back, i guess when i graduate. I don't tell my dad of course, this causes me lots of stress because my family is not some kind of rich, just middle-class or something.
I want to do something big, i always want to create a startup that has impact on the world, but i was born in a poor asian country. Struggling with tv, porn, masturbating addiction. Now just do this thing to make money, not creating anything but still not making any money let alone creating something big. I don't know how to code to create my startup. Don't have any valuable relationship. Now not knowing how to make money to continue making money, pay for debt. Should i give up and just confess all with my dad and then try to study hard to graduate and get a job. Maybe making some money until i have enough fund to go back and try. F*ck it, i'm lost now.
