^theres a special about some hobo in san diego that pulled in 60k in one year. YES 60k. he had an apt right down the street from the busiest corner in SD.

another one: http://www.news.com.au/national/sydn...-1225765153392

back to the idea: Make something a lot of people can use for very little for example: an app. millions could potentially use it and they are only 99 cents. also make it something that is annual. the companies i work for as my side business are regulated by the federal government to be calibrated once a year and i have had the same couple clients for 10years now.

school is only good if you utilize what your learning. i work in education and know how worthless some degrees can be if you "just want a degree". intern if you have the extra time, even if its after work or only on the weekends. that will ALMOST guarantee you a position in that company or at least a spot down the road or just some good experience.

not hard to make money, only hard part is finding that drive and direction you want to go.

thinking and not doing gets you nowhere but playing call of duty smoking blunts amounting to nothing but a level 4 prestige.

If your asking a subject on zilvia on how to make money, I think you should shy from investing at the moment until you have the resources and know what you are doing.

Ignorance is the best way of getting yourself into a quagmire.

Go to school, get an education then utilize a college education as the stepping path on your way to being something.

Ask your business professor on how to or any other questions, no offense guys but zilvia isn't the best place to ask for money making guidance.

Like many have said, if you really have to ask a forum that is comprised of a bunch of broke car enthusiasts (with a few exceptions) you are headed down the wrong path.

School. School. School.

If you choose not to go to school, you either have to know somebody special, get lucky, or be -really- good at something that good potentially be profitable. But if you couldnt figure that out on your own, chances are school isnt going to work for you either.

Long story short, its all about your drive and work ethic. Fast money only lasts so long.

Yes, there are several ways around that.

Depending on your state, you might be able to get a wholesaler's license. In MD this is not attractive as you can't sell to anyone else in MD except other dealers. You CAN, however, sell to private citizens from any other state. There's also nothing stopping you from getting a license in any other state, other than perhaps having to go there to apply and perhaps be incorporated there. You can go get a New Jersey wholesaler's license or something, skip the lot, and sell "out of state" to DC, MD, and VA people (i.e. anyone not from NJ).

You can also just pay an existing dealer a monthly fee, you'll be a "consultant" or somesuch bullshit, and he'll basically do all the business with your money under his license.

Personally, I just bought part of an existing business. A (minority share) partner was leaving a Mississippi car dealer operation and I stepped in and bought him out. I was then, in effect, part-owner of a Mississippi used car dealership and so any buying/selling I was doing was through this dealer and their license. This is the way to go if you can afford it. I eventually got tired of it and sold my stake to another existing partner.


At the moment, I've got a burr up my ass to start buying up small independent used car lots that come inclusive of real estate. Work on economies of scale, buying power at auction, swapping trades, and work the whole thing into a fairly synergistic consolidated business that can be spun off, and work on a ground lease for the land/improvements, then spin that portfolio off as well. Basically trying to find something that's worth more in pieces than it is as a whole, but I did this for a living with other people's money at a REIT (albeit with huge new car dealers), so I'm fairly certain it'll pencil out. If anyone has a few million bucks of starter equity I can snatch for like a 15% pref, non-recourse, holler.
