    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I totally agree about stuff not piling up. No cleaning/ repairs is also my rule for my side flipping business. It might sound crazy but I flip stuff on the side of my flipping business. lol My goal is that it will not be around in 30 days. What I mean by a flipping business on the side of my...

    Started A Mobile Oil Change Business But Struggling To Get Customers

    EXECUTION 
    I think you are barking up the wrong tree. 1 by 1 will take forever to make any money. If you wish to do this, you should contact businesses. I know a guy that owns a business with 5 vehicles and he has someone come change the oil and check the fluids. Another guy owns several small trucks that...

    A stand for airing out a mattress

    Actually, I think you are correct. I don't think sunlight will kill allergens, only dust mites. That was 20 years ago when I had a carpet cleaning company so maybe nowadays they have changed their minds. The problem is, stuff will still be ON the mattress and the allergens would just come right...

    The key is to sell very large items that have very large profit margins and don't be afraid to ship it with free shipping. Be sure to include the shipping in to the cost of the item.... but just say FREE SHIPPING. But the question is... do you mean massive sales or profit? I mean, you could...

    A stand for airing out a mattress

    Me being a clean freak, we get a clean mattress when we get a new one. It's been about 7 years for us and this one still feels comfortable so we will keep it until it is not comfortable anymore. No way I'd fight mattresses to get them outside and then fight them to get them back inside and on...

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Technically this is the rule at the museum where my wife works but..... a few years ago she was selling mostly antique jewelry and they didn't care. A board member walked through the office one day and asked her if she was selling jewelry, my wife said yes. The lady wanted to see some of it. So...

    "Hourly Billing Is Nuts"

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    This is how I've always ran every service business I've ever owned. What I have found is, it is much easier to sell the BRONZE if you have a gold and silver to offer. And, if you don't get them to buy the BRONZE, you will almost always get them to buy the GOLD. RARELY will people ever choose the...

    How would you spend $1 million dollars and get no sellable value from it?

    HOT! 
    <<<<<<<< In my thumbnail picture (mid 90's), my friend set a budget for that racecar (1BK) at $1 million for the year. With 5 weeks left in the season, he had to give the team more money to finish the season. So around 25 years later, I'd have a race team for a few months that traveled to...

    Appreciate any Feedback on Smart Vending Machine Concept

    So this is your first post, without offering help to others or anything and you post this confusing thing wanting people to eventually give you money? I think I'm confused. Cool idea for the Uber store and cool idea for the other store but what did picking up luggage have to do with anything...

    MASKS: To Wear or Not to Wear? You decide!

    HEALTH 
    I wish wearing a mask would have been made a law 75 years ago (or even 75 minutes ago). Everyone spits a little when we talk and a mask would prevent it for the most part...... not even talking about Corona, just spit in general. And as for social distancing..... right up my alley. I like for...

I have thought about doing something like what you are doing but it just seems so time consuming. But I've wanted to do something like what you are doing my whole life...

    Advice on Selling Mobile Home: $800/mo Positive Cashflow

    You mentioned a get rich idea...... so I'm guessing you will be staying at your current 'job' or another 'job' and not starting a business......? And at your current 'job' you just do what you are told and try not to rock the boat because it pays well?

    Making accessory parts that have gone obsolescent on Older Super Cars

    Go to FB groups like this one. There are hundreds, probably thousands of them out there. https://www.facebook.com/groups/462489727292409/ Planes might be another good niche. Even model planes or trains maybe. I appreciate the offer but my guy buys units wholesale and he saves parts from one...

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I totally get it. I had a Maserati, so my pocket book understands. lol Even the knobs on a washer/dryer are sky high! So bascially on anything that would need to be made you would outsource it? You do not have a 3D printer, correct? Would you just be outsourcing the production and you design it...

    It really depends. How much does it cost you to make a part like that and how much would that type of part cost to buy new and used? know you said he would need to buy a whole new unit but just for giggles.... how much would it cost?
