Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future.., I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life!!

[@mariaguerrero08]

Starting early is key to building wealth, with investing as a top priority. Learning from last year's experience, I've managed to build a better life by investing early this time around.

[@ThomasChai05]

Exactly ! That's my major concern and what lucrative investment can one venture into with the current rise in economic downturn

[@mikegarvey17]

In fact, I had no prior experience or understanding when I began investing in 2020, but by the end of 2023, I had made a profit of almost $850k. All I had been doing was going by what my financial advisor had told me. This demonstrates that all you truly need is a professional to assist you; you don't even need to be a great investor or put in a lot of work.

[@martyparsons9419]

Thanks for the insight and candor about your business, Alek! I seemed to think that "digital entrepreneurship" was one income source, albeit from varying POD businesses. Glad to see your point of view. 1. Digital Products 2. POD - Mug store 3. POD - Poster store 4. POD - T-shirt store 5. Social Media Content 6. Affiliate Marketing 7. Credit Card Bonuses Bonus tip: = Don't attempt to start multiple income streams at once. Build one, then move to the next, once cash flows.

Alek, I've been following you since before your 100k subscriber, and what I most appreciate about you, except your skills to explain things really well (of course) , is that you are always really honest and transparent about the reality of this business without making people believe it's really easy, like you make overnight success. Many other KZbinrs talk only about how much money they make just to get views, and are not clear about the reality of it. This is really important. Thanks for your videos!

Alek! youre the reason i made a store and got into POD designing. I have put in hundreds of hours of time and dedication into it. unfortunately the fruits of my labor has yet to be seen. 116 listings, and only sales were from supporting people in my circle. Losing hope, and dreading the seemingly inevitable return to blue collar. But seeing your vids, brings that hope back everytime.

To sell anything you first need to research the business requirements at your state's Secretary of State office. Sales tax comes in more than one form which can be confusing but they are part of our society.

[@Aussie413]

To anyone watching this that thinks that the money just rolls in. It doesn't! KZbinrs are getting scammed for their money. Etsy pays when they want to. same with PayPal and all the other social media sites. If you are looking for something that's going to pay your rent monthly or weekly (depending on which country you are in), you are better doing YT or any of these businesses as a side business while you have a job that pays your rent. Once your online business is working, then you can leave your job but, times are changing, so make the right choices.

[@onnaquest]

Just like this guy. He is or was in real estate in Colorado but I've only ever heard about his noodle hut job. I don't think a real estate career comes off quite as magical when you are lead to believe these schemes can make you financially independent on their own

[@yackablejohnson1485]

PayPal most certainly does not pay you when they want to. You're just making things up to make your comments stabilize your opinion.

[@onnaquest]

@@yackablejohnson1485 PayPal withheld money on my first transaction until I could provide proof of delivery. I delivered the items myself so there was no tracking and it was a PITA. It was thru my business account via woocommerce on my own site. If my costs were higher on that job, I could see this being a huge problem. I charge an extra 5% for PayPal now to incentivize an alternative method. Haven't had any issues since, but I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled something like that in the future.

[@YouDontKnowMe044]

KZbin is not the best for money as it isn’t easy to grow like that. Nothing is a quick get rich scheme but it is possible to make thousands from dropshipping, ptd.

Alek, what is an appropriate range of product listings for an Etsy shop?
