青少年該如何賺錢?

By Dan Lok - 駱峰

Summary

## Key takeaways - **Work to Learn, Not Earn**: Don't get a job just to make a quick buck; pick a career or mentor to develop skills and acquire knowledge as an apprentice or intern. Those skill sets will be extremely valuable when building your own thing or pursuing a career. [00:31], [01:03] - **Age Excuses Are Bullshit**: People say you're too young now, but one day they'll say you're too old to start a business or pursue your passion. The right time never comes, so don't use age as an excuse, use it as your advantage. [02:11], [02:32] - **Pick Results-Based Skills**: Choose a skill where you get paid based on results, not your age, like social media expertise, Instagram, YouTube, coding, or copywriting. Offer that to companies or entrepreneurs in exchange for money. [01:37], [02:54] - **Dan Lok's Young Consultant Story**: In his early 20s looking like 19 or 20, Dan Lok did marketing consulting and copywriting for businesses despite being told he was too young. He turned his youth into an advantage by delivering results. [01:49], [02:11] - **Take Massive Action Now**: As a 16, 17, or 18-year-old, relax because you're young and great things take time, but take massive action with your skills to make money right away and build from there.
