    Is Property Renting Viable?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Rental arbitrage is when you rent out a propery long term, but rent it out via AirBnB for short term. You pocket the difference. Essentially you're a property manager but take all the risk on you. I'd imagine that the hardest part is finding an owner who will let you rent it out short term.

    Best course hosting platforms?

    MARKETING 
    I don't actually run a course myself (I do want to) but did some research on this. If you want more control and flexiblity and also don't mind learning no-code, use something like Webflow and Memberstack + Zapier and Airtable. If you don't mind giving up a bit of control/flexibility for ease of...

    Let's Play a Game: Brainstorming Boring Business Ideas

    IDEA 
    1. Test preparation center for university students: You choose any university degree (such as Computer Science) and then analyse the curriculum, earlier exams, lectures and literature of a specific subject in that degree. Ideally it's a hard subject that many students need help with. Then you...

    Affiliate Marketing in 2022

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    That's actually how many do it I believe. They use the original ad to get traffic in, sign them up on an email list and them also send them affliate offers.

    Affiliate Marketing in 2022

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I'm also looking to get into this. I found that the best people to learn from are Matt Giovanisci and Miles Beckler. They're people who actually do this themselves and make a great living from it, while discussing what works and doesn't work.

    Quit $450k job to go fastlane: smart or not?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    This guy probably has more money at a younger age than a lot of people here, I don't think he's that worried. Getting a FAANG job and clearing 450k a year while you graduated in 2014 is not an easy feat at all.

    Ask Me Anything About Turkey

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hey, we're the same age! I'm going to my family's house in Bodrum this year after not going because for a few years because of Covid, always loved it there. Great food, people in Turkey are nice, the weather is great and little to no crime in cities/towns. Been going there since I was seven...

    Unprofitable Direct-to-Consumer Startups, Marketing V Productocracy

    EXECUTION 
    Isn't this how Elon Musk got rich as well? In most of the startups he joined, he didn't know much about the product and there were way better coders than him, but he did have those important VC connections that'd invest big money in all of those startups. Essentially, the startup team didn't...

    If you love cold calling…no reason you can’t be a millionaire in a few years…

    HOT! IDEA 
    I have no idea how you'd become a millionaire in a few years by JUST cold calling. Strictly only cold calling means that you're not allowed to make a product yourself, only selling is. That means you'll have to become an employee at some company and you won't become a milllionaire in a few years...

    When I grow up, I want to sell deodorant, razors, and heating pads.

    GOLD! IDEA 
    This is seriously hard to do though. In consumer products like these you have to compete against a few extremely big players (Unilever and P&G) who essentially control the entire market. You could be succesful if you're an innovator with your product and marketing, which is what all these...

    What I learned spending $40k and one year launching my app.

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Great thread. If you didn't already, I suggest you to read Paul Graham's essays. Especially "Do things that don't scale", it is essentially the new process you described but also why it works, etc. A pattern I noticed in these kinds of thread is that you have to stay far away from freelancing...

    Poor People Who Became Wealthy??

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Researched this a lot, here's some: - Jack Warner: born into a poor immigrant family in the Italian ghetto. Started a small theatre, sold it to start a film distribution company with his brothers which grew to become Warner Bros. Owned the Warner Estate where Jeff Bezos now resides. - Clive...

    Does Anyone Here Do Local Lead Generation? Too Good to Be True?

    SIDE HUSTLE QUESTION 
    Thanks for answering my questions, clears a lot up. I have two more that I can't figure out: (I'm doing research but there's just so much bullshit out there) - Do you start with building up and ranking the website first, or do you first look for clients? - Do you go out of your way to check for...

    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I always visit Bodrum (Western Turkey) in the summer and it has really good weather. Summers are great because the weather isn't too hot nor too cold. It's that temperature that's warm but pleasant. It's also very dry in the summer, so no humidity either. There's a slight wind you notice when...

    Does Anyone Here Do Local Lead Generation? Too Good to Be True?

    SIDE HUSTLE QUESTION 
    Wow, interesting to read from someone who is legit and is doing good. Good job man! I feel like it's very similiar to the hype around stock trading and NFTs: because the barrier is so low, you have a lot of bullshit resources from people who don't know what they're talking about. They make more...

    Does Anyone Here Do Local Lead Generation? Too Good to Be True?

    SIDE HUSTLE QUESTION 
    Lately, I've been researching local lead generation. At first glance it looks nice, since after some time it becomes semi-passive income and is scalable as you can target more businesses who need leads. The thing I don't understand is why those plumbers, roofers, etc would need someone else to...

    GOLD! HOT! REAL ESTATE 
    You know your stuff! Interesting to read how you have it under control. One more question: How do you avoid getting scammed by contractors? My dad used to dabble in RE development (nothing big) but, from stories I heard, everytime a project went wrong it was always the case that the general...
