    When to buy your first exotic car?

    HOT! OFF-TOPIC 
    I think that should probably be a good rule of thumb. I mean, if you can afford 10, would yoy question yourself if you bought one? Even if you can afford 3 maybe. By that point you have your house, travels etc so you wouldnt really question yourself. If you question yourself, there are probably...

    Thanks. Its actually easy. Just find someone who sells expensive stuff at a good price. Be the middle man and sell it for more and just take some of the profit for yourself. Let the seller ship directly to the customer and as such, you dont have to have any stock etc. Just pay for ads at Greek...

    $20.000/month ecommerce - Should I just sell it?

    I am in the same position. Short running time but very sucessfull. If you see your sales increase. Try to sell after 24 month. Reinvest into another business and do it again. Ask yourself. Do you need the 50k now or can you take 200k next year?
