Really? I started working odd jobs in the age of 12 like a fucking slave. Taking whatever cash I could get. I literally lived and still live like a poor person. Over the last few years I've gotten into retail gas stations, e-commerce businesses etc and it has worked out well. In 2017 I also started a small prop trading firm. All this is more for diversification and cash flow. I don't touch this account. Had I been drawing from it all these years, the results likely would have been a lot less satisfactory.
