Good planning and initial capital. Abundant sacrifices and good money management.
Also helps that it's essentially a family business so I could sacrifice stuff like moving out to build a better future.
I would say it cost me quite a bit of my 20s but not like there was much of a choice with my countries economy being terrible. Most jobs that don't involve flipping burgers asking people for a university degree, doctorate and 5 years of experience to the point where you basically have to slave away as an unpaid intern to even get a foot in the door.
So I chose to sacrifice that bit extra and jump on my brother's intent to work for himself by helping finance and handling the accounting (and the government mandated bullshit that comes along with it)
Still I don't think I had much choice given my overall health problems so...shrug we do the best we can with what life gives us and we have a jolly good time with the ride of life.
