Will's YouTube channel blew up last year when a video called "I Sold Candy At School For 1 Week" got almost 1 million views. Since this video took off, Will has doubled down on his YouTube channel while still being in high school and has been able to scale his channel to over 60,000 subscribers.


At the same time, he has continued to try out different methods of making money for teenagers beyond selling candy at school. Financial Wolf has had success with Shopify dropshipping, reselling, vending machines, and a host of other side hustles.


While pursuing these make money strategies for teenagers, Will has been able to make over $60,000 before turning 18 and document the entire process on his YouTube channel, Financial Wolf.


Teenagers and other students have been drawn to how real Will is in sharing the ups and downs of his different side hustles and being a genuine and relatable teenager himself.


In this podcast interview, Will shares how he was able to make money as a teenager and grow his YouTube channel so quickly. He also breaks down why he succeeded in some businesses like dropshipping, but failed in others like running a social media marketing agency.


Enjoy!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
