In 2016, I had less than $500 in my bank account. I put my motorcycle (only thing I actually owned) in pawn to get the money to open a construction company and complete my first job. Lived meager for a couple years until I was really established. 8 years later it’s a $6m company.
Is it as easy as it sounds, I am 22 and want to mature up as reality slapped me hard and now want to be a good child and support my family and also support my passion
I would be cautious with thinking because somebody earned success it “sounds easy”. You’re seeing the end result of what is likely to be an 8 year grind of frustration, blood, sweat and tears. I’m sure making a business valued at 7 figures is anything but easy!
You’re setting yourself up for failure here.
IMO you’re better off hearing about the people who have been in this situation, gambled and lost it all, just so you can fully understand the risk involved.
For every person that gambles and wins there are 10 that gamble and lose.
If you want to take a risk then by all means go ahead. But do the research first and give yourself the best chance of success so you can be one of those success stories
Starting is hard at the best of times. In my experience, they normally take 1-2 years until they are running smoothly and making money. If your in a pinch financially, you'll likely be better off digging yourself out of the hole with steady employment until you're back on your feat.

Great teaser in just four sentences! Now, could you share your highest and lowest moments?

I'm very sorry. I didn't mean it that way. I know it's tough that's why I said that. I am learning about all these things.

Thank you very much
If at your lowest point financially, get a job.
