Hi everybody! So I recently was gifted a very expensive MacBook Pro. It has 128gb ram, M5 Max chip, 40 Cores, 2 tb of ram, and 16 inches space black. Now, this is my very first Macbook. I did not choose this for me, I was gifted it. I don't want to waste the power that I know this machine and I don't want to sell it either. I'm not familiar with how ram and cores etc. really work either. I do a lot of 4k video editing but I don't think that really uses the macbook I have to its maximum capacity. Are there any things I can do to really USE this computer?

So i'm a sophomore at an all boys private Jesuit high school and enjoy baking. My dad got mad that I was just giving out baked goods because he was buying the ingredients, so I calculated the costs of recipes and such, but found that I can't sell any goods for double their cost which I am pretty sure is standard for bakeries. No one at school will buy baked goods because they cannot grasp the cost of my ingredients even though I am buying the cheapest stuff I can. I lowered my costs to stuff like a dollar more than the cost or a bit. I mean, the profit is not really why I bake, it's the experience I get from baking. Nonetheless, I quickly figured out I struggle selling anything I bake. It's scary how much I suck at selling. Not to mention the arrogant smugness of some kids or complaining about my "high prices" from the kids who pay the full $20k tuition. The whole thing is pretty irritating, but I've found a regular crowd who really enjoys what I make and buy from me whenever I bake. It also just so happens that the regular crowd is in my social circle at school. They aren't my best friends, but I share classes with them. So, the other day, a kid on the lacrosse team asked if I was selling any baked goods. I was shocked because I don't interact with the kid or anything: he had heard of me through reputation. This would be all fine and dandy if I didn't suck at selling to people other my friends. Continuing this problem, the coffee shop I work at asked if I could sell baked goods there. I replied with a "I'll think about it". This is all very exciting and such, but I just don't know how to sell to strangers and how to deal with idiots who say they don't like something. I would really love any and all advice
