Im not 100% sure i know what entrepreneur-ship means, but what exactly makes someone seen as a entrepreneur? what do they do usually?

Start a business.
Like any? or is there a certain one others start with? does it matter or can i do my own thing?
Any business. All you need to do is identify something that you can sell for more than the cost that it takes you to make the thing you are selling.
It can be a good or service, it doesn’t matter .
It might not hurt to be employed first - if you haven’t gone through that.
From there you kind of just come to the conclusion that your bosses are idiots and you can do it better. Or no one will hire you and self employment is the best/only option.
You’re pretty much building/selling/managing businesses. There are varying levels to it - from landscaping to tech startups.
The process depends on the country. But the main point: you have an idea and ability to make it happen.
Build it yourself, or hire someone and manage them - if you can get things done and make money of it, that’s the whole idea.
Usually people fail at thigs they do not know how to do. Being an entrepreneur means you should know how to do it or whom to hire and proptly pay to take care of the problem.
Taxes, finances, time management, idea, the ability to follow through, the ability to know what you need and to have an actual market for your product.
For me that word has negative connotations, not quite a scammer but someone who is not doing honest work but doing some kind of capitalist bs that is only good for themselves, very likely on the expense of others, so I wouldn’t (want to) know.

You start with a small loan of a quarter million dollars from your parents. I tried to do my own business designing book covers for indie authors to pick up some money while I was injured and bedbound, but it turned out that I needed money to make money. Looking back, I needed to drop a substantial amount into more advertising, and I really needed to be able to travel to pick up clientele at the convention circuit, which is also expensive.
AI has completely ruined that market anyways, so it wouldn’t have lasted for long even if I had dropped a ton of money into it.
