Business or university? Confused about the reality of life
I’m 20 year female living in the Uk. I work as a room attendant that pays me 35k£ a yr. I live with my parents and don’t really have much financial responsibilities. I plan on saving at least 15k this yr or more. I want to start a beauty product business in the next 1.5 yrs that covers a specific common pain point and want to help people deal with it. I plan on building a an audience on social media while i work but only educating content and just build a community then build a email list before I launch so then I would at least get potential customer.
As Im 20 and have friends going university studying better job with better reputation I feel very behind and ashamed of the fact that at this point I only work as a room attendan no one knows friends or family. But at the same time o don’t want to go university and study a course I would absolutely hate (nursing) but it has a good reputation and a stable income.
I feel lost and behind and idk what to do. my dream is to start that buisness but is it realisti? will it work? Or will I make myself an idiot for thinking otherwise? in 5 years time will I still be working in entry level positions while my frirnds have stable life while I’m still trying to figure out life because I made a mistake of starting a business
