I wasn't going to make this thread but decided that by perhaps showing some of you this it'll motivate you to do something.So follow along in my journey of bootstrapping.
My real goal at the end of this is to make an e-commerce site and make some money on the side for other things.But the main goal is e-commerce.
I'm bootstrapping using sites like craigslist,apps like OfferUp,and other little selling platforms.
I have already made some progress flipping and selling because I wanted to be sure I would pull through with this.I'm currently flipping bikes that are either very old or bikes for casual cycling.
After every update, I will post a screenshot of google sheets that shows each bike being bought and sold.
I'll share my thoughts and tips along the way as I go.The end goal is a grand or two and perhaps a few car flips.
I should also note that I'm 16 with no car....So shit can get hard sometimes.My deals aren't always good and I'm still learning how to value and flip a bike so excuse shitty profits.
Anywho,here's the first google sheet screenshot.I'll update this weekly I suppose.
90$ from flipping and 130$ total (extra 40$ from somewhere else not related).Goal is always double what I paid for.
