    You can at least say you tried. Not everyone succeeds, it’s damn difficult to succeed, but you can at least say you made an effort.

      They said what I did is not real work. Entrepreneurship is not real work, real work is to get a job. So, according to them I never tried anything or did any real work.

        No offense OP but your family members saying this are a bunch of idiots.

        A job was generated by “entrepreneurs” - so what are they thinking the job came from? The government??

        Are you aware that these people are just fucking haters? They actually WANTED you to fail bc it makes them feel better about their own life decisions. They spent their lives being slaves to the timeclock, and you went out and tried to break the mold. Well…they can’t have that, lol. The entrepreneur is smart enough to realize that paying others to do work for them, is the only way to cash them big checks. The caveat, is its not easy to do.
