The Start

I'm a 17 year old kid that has been living off of his parents for the past 17 years. In January, I will be turning 18. I have never had a job. I submitted applications... but was never hired... I sold things on the side for income. I sold stuff for friends for a cut of the profit, and I bought/trade items to resell. It wasn't a steady pay like traditional jobs so I was hustling for awhile. I did Cuto (Vector) for a week and made $120. My job was a sales rep, and I was pretty good at it. When people asked me what my job was, I told them  "I sell knives."  with a smile on my face. It was a good job but, the problem was... I didn't have a car and I had to rely on my mom and relatives for transportation. Every week there would be a team meeting, which was about a 40 min drive form where I lived. Because of that, I've decided to stop working. I've hustle on the side a bit, sold a few things here and there. My mom told me yesterday that she was going to sell the house and move out the country while I go to college at the end of the year. So basically... I need to be able to stand on my own financially by the time college comes around.... What am I going to do??  I could get a job and work hour to hour.. but being me, I get really lazy if I find what I am doing is boring. Also, I do not feel that an hour of my time is worth $7.50. I can make more than $10 an hour selling balloons for $1 each at a carnival, just sayinnnn.
Then I thought of ALL the  possible way I could make money both legal and Illegal. Some of you were probably like "What?! He's thinking of making money illegally??"  It's only part of my brainstorming! Haha The best Idea that came to me other than starting my own mafia was that I could start making money on the internet! How? I've heard alot about the work at home online businesses, surveys and getting paid to surf the web. None of that showed any interest in me because it sacrificed time for money. The way I see it, Time IS money. I wanted something more passive. What I put in will determine what I get out with a possibility of getting even more than what I originally put it. Basically, something like compound interest. What came to me was Google Adsense! I could start working now and by the end of the year, if I'm successful, the money I make from Google Adsense can cut a portion of my monthly financial cost if not all. So what I did was...

1. Made a Blogger.
2. Apply for Google Adsense.
3. Bookmarked Google Hot Trends.

I've researched about making money with Google Adsense before and these are the tools I will be using to start. This is my project. This is my start. This is my story.
