OK, getting back to the OP. New shit has come to light...
which may, or may not, have bearing on this situation, but let’s take it as a hypothetical that the OP is someone with a certain amount of higher education, but not enough and/or not in the right field to “telecommute”, has some experience managing a business (but not owning one) - but leans more towards business management at any rate rather than becoming a techie, and comes from a family that owns a business somewhere that the OP would rather not live. What advice would I give to someone in that situation?
Yeah, that’s a tough one. Trying to scrape together enough money to bootstrap a business on your own from nothing is very hard, especially in an expensive location with high overhead like a ski town. And given that most businesses fail in the first few years, good luck trying to get a bank or investors on board.
Maybe get Dad hooked on skiing, so he sells the business and retires to Colorado? Unless that’s a possibility, yeah I’d say towel throwing is not such a bad option.

Pitch Dad on investing, give him a big ownership share, open a carwash somewhere there isn't one and there are lots of fancy cars, profit.
