I am 20 years of age but my mind is more mature than any other guys at my age. I am a business minded person. As of now I'm managing my aunt's Internet Cafe named Cybermix Internet Cafe, My uncle's boarding house, I'm also an Internet Service Provider agent/dealer which is PLDT (Philippines Long Distance Co.). I have a sideline in house to house repair on CPU and maybe next month I would be practicing to be a broker. Hopefully with God's guidance I could be in the right path. How about you guys specially at my age? Please share your current work thank you.

I am 20 also. I have an 8 month old daughter, so i am not working right now. Me and her father just split up, and i got the "$hit end of the stick"... he left me with NOTHING! so now i am just trying to pick up where i left off and get my life back together... i am going to be starting school in may to become a pastry chef, after 37 weeks of school i will be sent on a paid externship for 10 weeks .. somewhere that is looking to hire me after the 10 week period.. so i am pretty excited about it! it's always been a dream of mine since freshman year in highschool to open my own bakery someday, so i guess this is the first step in doing so :)

When I was 20 I was still in the university earning my degree. I earned my pocket money by selling shirts and make ups so that way I only needed my dad to pay the tuition fee. I liked the idea of employment at the time, steady salary and routines etc. At the age of 22 I got a good paying job, right after graduation. I loved the pay so when my 2 friends told me I should have my own business, I thought they were nuts LOL
Then I got married and had to move here. I still thought employment was good, and again, I met at least 3 people who told me I should have my own business. Now I have my own business for almost a year. At first I thought this is bad idea since I missed getting good paycheck regularly, but now things start looking up and I understand there is nothing wrong with having a business as long as I know how to save and manage my money.
