Eh... you're 14 years old, just focus on normal school for now and on the side learn everything about PCs through YouTube and by reading as many threads as your can on forums like this, but don't be disappointed if you come to the realization that putting PCs together hardly ever results into a profession.

TBH I don't have a lot of experience, but I'd prob start off at microcenter (if it's close to you.) you could work at the knowledge bar and help people build their computers.

Start with this : 

It's a playlist with all the tech quickie episodes. Gives a general understanding of a lot of stuff.

Microcenter is a US based retailer only... His location is Lithuania.. so I doubt he has one within 3,000 miles of him...

Tbh yeah, i'd say start during college/around the same area.

maybe just give advice on PC building until you gain a reputation for being a PC nerd. Then you can try to build PCs for people. It's quite a long shot, but it could work. Just don't expect to make a living off that though

It's a good job for a college student, being paid to fix computers/make them has a salary of around 14 dollars average.

If you want to learn how to repair or fix PCs, start with your own. Get a little risky, break your machine, then figure out how to fix it. Or take it apart and put it back together. Reinstall Windows. Install another OS. There's plenty you can do now to build up a base set of skills.

I'd recommend checking out Professor Messer's A+ videos. They are free and they got me my first job right out of high school. I no longer do hardware but it was the foundations that I built the rest of my career on.
