Have you ever had a side hustle in your life and, and have you ever considered one if you don’t have one? Uh, so, my business that I currently own started as a bit of a side hustle, so video production. And then the other side hustle I have, which is kind of funny, is I started flipping tables on, on Kijiji and Facebook Marketplace to save up money for a down payment on a condo that I bought.

That’s very cool. When I was, 20. So I thought you meant literally flipping the table. No, I was getting that too. I was fixing them and all that stuff. But I was, I was buying. So where do you buy the used tables at a yard sale type of thing? I was just, I was like scouring marketplace, bought tables for 100 and then you’d send them, repaint them.

No, I wouldn’t go that far. I just clean them and take good marketing photos of them and sell them for 500 bucks. Really? Yeah. You should let, stay in that business. I like those markets. I still do it sometimes. Dude, good for you. Quite honest with you.

 Have you ever had a side hustle? I’ve had plenty of side hustles. Um, I bought Pokemon cards when they got hot and, uh, flipped those. Two summers ago, I thought it’d be really funny to see if I could find stuff that people were throwing out in the garbage and sell it.

I made a thousand bucks just having a little fun finding like picnic tables or whatever and selling them. That’s crazy. Um, yeah, so like little fun things, but nothing too serious because I’m fairly busy already. Braden, our last guest, was buying tables. Off, uh, Kijiji and off Facebook Marketplace and then flipping them for hundreds of dollars or more.

It’s incredible how easy, if you’re willing and hungry, it’s incredible how much money is actually very, a lot closer than you think it is. And a lot of used stuff. Yeah, and you don’t over engineer. Like, I think I heard the last guest, Brandon, talk about, he doesn’t sand them, he doesn’t do anything. He just takes better pictures.

Lazy. Like, literally lazy, but makes money. Like, you don’t have to over engineer the solution.
