My exams have just finished and as a 16 year old entrepreneurship has always been my dream, however it got compressed and squashed when i was younger as i was told to settle for a job, now i have understood this lie my passion for freedom id greater than ever and it is probably too large for me to even handle as any online business venture that i have tried to do, hasn't exactly worked as quickly as i thought it would, and i was clearly too uneducated about business in general, despite reading lots of books.

My problem is I think too much and I think that I overcomplicate business and selling products or it is just genuinely difficult as an under 18. I wanted to immediately go into selling products rather than trading time for a service but i am wondering if this is the best place to start as a product often takes investment as well as time and it is not a guarantee it will sell. Bit of a rant but it does seem like things are against me when everyone around me is telling me to do the common university, debt, job path
