Hey guys, 20yo uni student here trying to figure out how to pay my bills.

I’ve been reading up on the Airtable + Make. com + Softr stack. People online claim you can learn this stack in 1–2 months and start charging small businesses $1,500+ per project to build client portals and automate workflows.

To be completely honest, this sounds too good to be true.

Most entry-level jobs require a 4-year degree and pay $15–$20/hr. Why on earth would a business pay $1,500+ for a system built using tools someone learned in a few weeks?

I want a brutal reality check from people actually doing freelance/agency work in this space:

1. Is the money real? Are small businesses actually paying $1k–$2k for basic Airtable/Make builds, or is this just hype sold by course creators?
2. What are you ACTUALLY being paid for? If the tools are easy to learn, why don't business owners just spend a weekend setting it up themselves?
3. What is the hard part no one talks about? Is it landing clients? Scope creep? Edge cases breaking?

I’m ready to put in the work to learn the technical side, but I don't want to chase a fake ghost skill. Tell me like it is.

Looking for cheap clothes that i can buy in bulk so I am not running out of clothes every other day.

PS: I don't have a washing machine!

Hello, so we are going to install 10KW system but I thought it'd be good to post here and see opinions of those who are experienced.

I'm currently in my first year of uni and want to spend this summer doing an internship to learn the skill. The goal is to earn serious money, but I have no older brother to guide me and don't know who actually teaches real US-centric sales. If anyone has a roadmap, course suggestions, or knows agencies hiring freshers for the summer, please help a 19 year old brother out
