I'm thinking of starting a small business or a side hustle so that I could make some money without relying too much on my parents. It would be great if you could give me some advice on making money at this age!
At peak so far made 50k$/M in profit and now looking to beat it soon.

Get a job. You’ll get better suggestions if you give some context like where you are and what skills or experience you might have.

Yes yes! The earlier the better! So good reading this from you. I’d advice for you to start with something you’re really passionate about. Could be something you’re already good at. Cooking, cleaning, any service. Build a sustainable business model around it. I’ll warn you though that, building any real profitable business actually takes time and work. Do not expect to get rich quick/fast right of the bat. Stay clear off anything promising fast/quick/easy money. These do not exist. Money comes from putting in time and effort. You can also lose it as fast as you get it, but with the right structure and systems, you’ll build a long-term business that you’ll be proud of. Wishing you all the best😊😊

By all means do something small, but make sure you get a good education first and foremost.
It feels very pointless when you can make some money now, but decent education and the opportunities it provides cant be brought.

Yeah, starting early is actually a huge advantage if you keep expectations realistic. At 16 I’d focus less on “big money” and more on learning how money actually works: selling something simple, doing a service, flipping stuff, whatever. You’ll mess up, but those mistakes are cheap at this age and super valuable later. Just don’t fall for the online guru stuff, real skills beat hype every time.
