I agree.
I used to hustle all the time using CL and other sources. A good hustler can manage to avoid having to get a job but it still keeps them in the rat race. My favorite hustle was finding a Lexus LS400 and reselling it. In LA you can find a cool 1st or 2nd Gen Lexus for close to 1k, give it a nice car wash, polish up the rims and install a shitty sound system to attract sidewalkers and BAM! in a week or two you can resell it for for 2k.
I can't tell you how many times I flipped that car for cash man! I was living the slackers dream in college thanks to that hustle, but still ...hustling isn't a good long term solution.
What's the long term solution? This is an open ended question by the way. I know of people who just buy and sell anything for a living but it's tedious work always travelling for products and then trying to flog em.
Not really building nothing as a business or a brand.
