So basically I haven't worked a day in my life since I was 16 working at a grocery store, this year I made a little over $60,000 through some untapped means, but the money is drying up and isn't coming in fast enough anymore, should I get a day job? go back to college?
Tl;dr I have made $60k this year, and I'm afraid within the next few years, I could go broke if I don't play the game right

>doesn't tell us about his age, net worth, if he has a car/needs a car, has access to a good college, what he wants to study at college, if he has the financial support from family to go to college, if he rents, owns, has a mortgage or lives with his parents, doesn't specify his intelligence level, what country or city he is from or the means by which he is getting his 60k income so we can inform him if it is a secure way of making money or he just got lucky
>60k
>drying up fast
Nigga this amount of money buys 10 years of neetdom. Stop having an inflated lifestyle.

This sounds like it would be the job for you if you decide to go to college.

What did you do to get the money? Do tell
I made 250k on bitcoins in 2013, but stopped after that, so I know your feeling
Anyways, the answer to your question is that you should go back to community college and study something useful. At that point, if you've studied something where an associate's would be useful you can go try to get a job, or you can transfer to a university and get your bachelor's degree, to which your $60k will be a useful contribution. Make sure that if you can't get a decent internship you take summer classes instead. Also make sure that you don't study worthless or beyond your intellectual capability, as college would then be a waste of time.

Sounds like you're feeling rushed and it's preventing you from taking the time to figure out what would actually light your fire. I suggest you do some reflective activities, hiking, sitting by the ocean, hell people have had breakthroughs during a long shower. This isn't a question we can answer for you OP, even though we've made similar decisions.
Just making a list of things that interest you might be a good start.

You made $60k from a shopify store selling shirts? That's fucking awesome, good on you m8.
How long did it take for you to start making sales? I'm very interested in starting an ecommerce business, but I figure there will be a long time between me starting the store and selling anything.
