$10k what? $10k per month?
 
Only 10k nothing more or less
You want to make $10k over four years? That should be trivial. Get into flipping. I probably made $30k last month. I say probably because it's based what I think I'll make off of purchases I've made, not my sales, which were $11k, but it's a reasonable estimate. Now, that's not typical of every month. It ebbs and flows based on the luck of what goes up for sale.



But, you have to be smart about it. "I know! I'll sell video games!" Don't do that. That's what everybody thinks. Learn about jewelry. Here's the thing, all you have to know about what you're selling is how to recognize it, and how much it's worth. I sell antiques. I don't know shit about antiques. I just know how to recognize them and how much they're worth.

Also, I spend very little time doing this. A couple hours a day at most. You could easily do it in addition to another job or studies.

If you can be a waiter at an upscale restaurant, working Friday-Sunday, you can earn 10k in 10 weeks or less

Id do that over the meme stuff like dropshipping unless you already have a good skill like programming or something

Moneymaxxing by serving is legit, just work those peak days each week and 10k can be reached pretty fast

Lie about past experience if needed, just need to be good at talking to people etc

I’ve had good success flipping legos but I am wary and purchasing items in mass tbh

Why? Because it feels like free money and there must be some downside? Just sack up and make the purchase if you know you can make money.

Earlier this year I found an auction for a bunch of the same thing, which according to my research were worth $300 a piece. So I start buying them, and I'm getting them for like $7.50-40 a piece. And they just keep putting more and more of them up for sale. And I just keep buying. And the whole time I'm pretty nervous because I'm feeling like there must be something wrong here, but I can't see how I could be wrong so I just keep buying them. I end up with 143 of them. They have been my best seller in the past couple months. I've sold ~25 for $300. I don't give a fuck if it takes me 10 years to sell them all because I've already made my money back.

Just the other day I was researching something I saw up for auction. Found people selling for $700-1000 on ebay and retail, one sold for $600. But as I'm searching, I find someone on Walmart.com selling them for $180. I'm thinking it must be a mistake. But I see what the max I can buy is - 12. So I order 12. Next day I check to see if they have any more, and they've raised the price to $980. But they shipped the ones I bought! That's a cool $5000 right there.

Just make sure your expected profit margins in a worst case scenario are big enough to cover and even worse scenario and you're golden. I've made hundreds, if not thousands of purchases, and I've lost money like 5 times, and it was a trivial amount, whereas most of the time I double my money, and on several occasions I have made huge amounts. In April I sold an item I bought for $1000 for $24,000 at auction. The actual selling price was like $34,000 but the auction takes a significant portion.

Im afraid of losses and duds tbh. It’s hard to predict which things will sky rocket and which will be duds . I have around 1.5k worth of unopened Lego I either got on sale or waiting for retirement so I can sell at a premium. Sales tax is very irritating as it eats into the potential money I can make since most of these middlemen take a percentage of sales around 10 percent
 
Here are some past items that have done well but if you only hold for a year after retirement chances are the roi won’t be nearly as good so u must buy in mass @longjohnmong

Yeah, that's a mistake. There is this mentality that's hard to shake that this one purchase you made is your big break or whatever, or that losing money is the worst thing in the world, or that $1000 is a lot of money, or even $10,000, or even $100,000. It's taken me a long while to get out of that mentality. Literally 6-7 years ago I thought I would never have $10,000. Now my bank account varies by $10,000 on a month to month basis. The truth is you have your entire life to find shit to sell. And the thing is, you never have to retire because it's so little work. It's even fun. I have been to Europe 5 times to pick stuff up that I bought. And the profits more than pay for the trip. There are countless opportunities every single day.

It's like pick up, where they talk about oneitis vs. abundance mentality. Right now you have oneitis for your $1.5k legos. Make a nice profit and move on to the next thing. I mean, don't do it until you're more confident in your selling.

Also, I feel like Legos is a super competitive market, and another thing that everyone is doing. You gotta either sell stuff that not as many other people are selling or look places that not as many people are looking, like European auctions or something. As long as the profit is big, it can cover any expenses. I've had good luck with guitars, musical equipment, camera lenses. My friend does well with film cameras. A dude on reddit was selling costume jewelry and claiming he was making a huge amount per month. He seemed honest.

If I were looking towards retirement (which I think is unnecessary because, again, flipping is easy and fun and you never have to retire). I would figure out what the most popular toy shit is right now that will have maximum nostalgia in 20 years and buy all the rarest, most limited shit and keep it in storage. 100-1000X your money if you play your cards right.
