No. Why would you want to start small and early?
Better wait for retirement and start investing after you have some money to invest.

I commonly see people advocating for 6 months of savings and I barely have two, so I thought I’m poor. Also loads of students in college blow cash like it’s nothing as well

Saving while the dollar is losing value visibly? That is one hell of a losing strategy. Money with velocity - assets are ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS going to be better than fiat in a bank with 0% reserve requirements and the threat if negative interest.

If you're just going to hodl and not do a lot of trading, buy BTC, ETH, and LINK. Pick your entry point for the first two whenever you think it's a good time. Recommend checking https://cryptoalerts.ai/ for when it says RSI oversold for them and buy then so you don't get pissed off at buying the top. Just buy LINK whenever, I can never predict what it's going to do other than assume it'll trend upwards overtime.

I used about $2k for marketing for a shopify store I set up, made about $10k revenue in 3 months (only around $2k profit), then sold the store for $4800. The results aren't fantastic, but I dont really know what Im doing and it wasn't exactly a lot of work (maybe 20 hours of actual "work" not including research). If I can do it basically anyone can.

I think your potential returns are a lot greater with flipping ecomm sites (or just eventually running your own successful brand) than with basically anything right now other than lucky 100x shitcoin. Even if your store loses money (mine didn't, but it doesnt matter much), shit like your email list and ad pixel have immense value. A niche ad pixel is basically just paid for market research, and a skilled marketer can make it profitable, usually pretty quickly.

headphones, smart watches and fitness bands

I wouldnt recommend that specifically though, or any tech product really, its hyper competitive. Its also kind of a one and done sales model until you launch a new model or something. There's no real reoccuring revenue, and I found it sort of difficult to logically implement a subscription system (just look at the physial product brands who try to launch SaaS products/paid-for services, most of them end up failing miserably at one or the other, or go decades with no profit). Search results for tech is also dominated by paid-for reviews and showcase posts. 95% of all the big tech news sites just take money to push out prewritten articles on products. Forbes inluded (even though its not specifically tech-related, its for some reason reputable).

I moved into a more homestyle niche, but something like lawn care would be a good choice. Lots of people are at home, trying to keep busy, and not many people have perfect, beautiful yards. You could do something like sell a grass nutrient/pH blend (you can wholesale that shit pretty easily, all the chemicals needed are available online in bulk). Im sure there's affiliate and private labeling opportunities for that as well.

You can also get customers to sign up for a newsletter for exclusive lawncare/gardening tips, and maybe interviews/guest articles from a big name in the space, promotional offers (its pretty easy to get custom discount codes from businesses offering complimentary products and services), etc.

You then use your newsletter/email list to sell a higher ticket product like a rototiller, lawn fertilizer, airator, etc

I'd compete by taking less of a profit margin and having a lower customer acquisition cost. Most tech companies are running on like 90% margins (on their cost of goods), and then dump millions of dollars into expensive ad campaigns where they basically bash their product over a customer's head until they relent. They have insane overhead, insane r&d budgets, etc, so they have to charge 2-3x as much as they probably should, and depend on brand loyalty to give their product more value.

I could sell my shit for half as much as large companies sold similar products, and around the same price as other small private labelers/dropshippers/wholesalers. But, because I had no brand loyalty, and didn't have the money for an expensive awareness campaign, I was basically depending on people impulse buying random stuff on facebook, and was having a really hard time profitably scaling that, so I pulled the plug.

all depends on how bullish u are of btc. I'd say 40% btc 40% eth, 20% altcoins atm.
