Which way to go?

One day I was sick and laying in bed so I started watching Youtube videos on making money on the internet. I have always been interested in having my own business. So I got hooked on getting rich on Amazon FBA then discovered Shopify drop shipping and those led to CPA , funnels and affiliate marketing. Of course I was excited.

Then I thought wtf? The more I watched I realized some of these experts were just parroting each other and quite a few weren't even doing the business they were trying to sell you a course on. .. and my inbox is full of them now.

Drop shipping seemed cool and easy so I made a Shopify store. That's been fun as I learned quite bit and made a few sales (from a USA supplier). Then I joined Shopify Newbies on Facebook and that was an awakening as to ever scaling that site. As you know there are many horrible sites and people losing money. There are a lot of sites just thrown up and advertised to the point that quite a few people there are too worried someone is going to duplicate their site and I think there is truth to that from the comments I've read. Those revelations and other reading leads me to believe the ease of entry into drop shipping has created a lot of interference for rising above the noise of the others doing the same thing. It appears the... not sure how to phase it .. cost/benefit/time ... for drop shipping is not now a first path for a noob? I think it could be done but it'll take a lot more skills and I'm not sure how long that'll take to get above all the "I'm in it because it looks easy and cheap to make money" drop shippers (like I was, ha ) Even just advertising one "killer product" from all my "research" I feel like quickly there would be a hoard of others just like me.

I "think" the Amazon FBA might be doable. The barrier of entry with skills/money/time is a little higher then Shopify/Alliexpress. With that I feel retail arbitrage appears to have an "ok" risk or buying from Alibaba and letting Amazon FBA handle a few products has a decent chance of success if I'm careful. I could make a little income while learning?

Then there's affiliate, CPA and the whole Clickfunnels. I don't have special knowledge or a product to funnel but, I do see some people appear to be making a lot of money using page funnels for affiliate and CPA. I don't quite understand that yet and I don't know how high the skill level is for that.

I'm excited about learning but my thoughts are being fractured into different directions and each path has some overlapping skills I can benefit from, but I can't do all.

So, I rambled there. Any thoughts on Drop Shipping bloody water, Amazon still ok?, skill level for Affiliate Funnels (don't do it or it's easy just try a funnel) will be helpful. OR, something else?

It would be nice to make a little money while learning if possible but getting through all the BS from the experts and people selling me success is really spinning me in circles.

I want to head in a direction and I'm ok with switching to another path one day as I learn. I do have time and patience. So, any thoughts are welcome.

Thank you,
