| By Prostyle - 01-31-2012, 01:09 AM - Boxden > The Money Spot (finance/careers) What do you guys have going as far as a side hustle? Let's use this thread to share and critique ways to make money outside of a job, I'll start with mine. Selling Candy, Chips, and Soda- I know this sound lame as hell but I make about $25.00 a day doing this on my college campus. I make about $500 extra a month doing this, but net about $400. On the re up I got a EBT hookup where I pay dude .50 cent on the dollar which cut expenses in half. The Goodwill Hustle- The objective of this hustle is to find undervalued stuff at thrift shops and resale them for a profit on ebay, or craigslist. This one is pretty lucrative if you know what to look for when you go in these places. I ALWAYS go on their re up days which are every Tuesday to get first dibs on the new stuff they bring in, this is essential if you want to get the good !!, I can't stress this enough. The things I look for personally are Nike Sweaters, Retro Sports Jerseys, Yugioh Cards, Retro Crew Neck Sweaters, etc. If you know your target buyers well enough you can use your discretion to buy !! you know you can unload for a profit. I usually net about $500.00 on a good month. Livin Frugal- If you seriously want to make money, like foreal foreal, you need to make sacrifices. I persoanlly live by the 50% rule, which basically means OFF TOPS half of what ever I bring in gets saved, period, point, blank. I know most people can't do this due to other financial obligations, but to the young heads out there still living at home, take advantage. On top of those two hustles I have a part time job which I net about $600 month doing, full time college student. All together I net about $1500 a month, which I think is pretty decent [pic] So lets hear what yall got to contribute! -PS |

| On top of a full time job getting $600 a week after taxes, I mix music. Money from that really depends...sometimes it's $200 a week, sometimes it's $50, sometimes it's nothing. But I haven't put effort into that yet so I could be making more if I put my name out there. | |

| damn for a second i thought u !!ers were actually making $25 a day selling "candy" [pic] [pic] On the real though. Lets say you buy 28 candy bars and sell them 1 at a time..you are not going to make that much money, enough to let you eat candy for free. If you really want to make money selling candy bars you have to buy a quarter-pound of candy minimum [pic] Last edited by CamoBoxers; 02-23-2012 at 07:09 PM.. | |

| I guess my main question is how good are "moderate condition" items | |
| |
| 02-24-2012, 09:21 AM | online - #18 |
| I treat them as used, but hey it works and you can sling them for half off. I just don't !! with salvage electronics, cuz thats when piece be missing or cracked screen. But you can get those item for hella cheap tho. I got 3 51' TV's (one cracked screen, and other 2 were missing cords) for $250. You just gotta find the right buyer to sell them. Remember there's buyers and there's sellers. Which one you wanna be??? | |
