    Work From Home Brainstorm

    Gentlemen, I'm trying to figure out ways to work from home... I am considering an EBAY type store that I will likely try to get going out of my house. With that being said does anyone else have any decent home work activities worth mentioning?

    Of note, my hometown has a population of circa 30,000 here in Western Kentucky - so probably not the best demographics for making millions

    Depends on your skill sets or ability to go back to school. For example, there are freelance copy writers, grant writers, graphic artists, counselors, etc.

    Then there is sales or sales appointment setters. Depending if you can leave the house to run sales calls sometimes you can be a sales contractor for different type of companies. I know companies that will pay per appointment set. For example, find a Duct Cleaning business and set up a meeting with the owner. Ask him if he'd pay you for every appointment you can set. I bet he'd pay you between $20-$50 per appointment set. Besides Duct Cleaning you could have arrangements with other types of companies as well. Heating & Cooling, Water Conditioning, Carpet Cleaning, etc. etc.

    Along the Ebay deal...the key is to not to just list for others but become an expert in finding other people's junk and reselling it for a profit. I had a friend who lost his license for 12 months. So he started buying old laptops from companies that were not WIFI enabled. He'd slap some memory and a WIFI card in it and sell it for about $50-$75 profit. He averaged around 5 a week. Not the best but keep some money coming in and his wife off his back.

    ...So live, that when thy summons comes to join
    The innumerable caravan, which moves
    To that mysterious realm, where each shall take
    His chamber in the silent halls of death,
    Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night,
    Scourged to his dungeon, but, sustained and soothed
    By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave
    Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
    About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.

      Or you could pimp yourself out. Have them stop by your house. You could make flyers and give out business cards. That way you would never need to leave and I am sure you can find a list of steady clients starting with Norm lol

        lol, starting with norm

        I've a degree in Journalism - you would think I would be more knowledgeable about freelancing, truth is I don't have a clue about it or where to begin.

        my GF is the junk queen, I just need to put her on the junk quest and mark things up like a good middle man - that'd be the start to the Ebay thing.

        thanks for the response Eagle -

          With a degree in journalism you should get with Broc, He's a photographer. You guys could get some passports and start covering some of these revolutions over seas and start a YouTube channel of the rawest forms.

          I was fixing computers and selling books online on Amazon. It wasn't much but it kept money coming in. Also doing some landscaping was another I was doing as a part of that.



          As for pimping yourself the sign could read..... Sweet Ass..come and tap in......donkey punches included!

            I have a buddy who makes a very nice living selling apparel on eBay...he gies to stores and talks to the manager and buys their clearance stuff in bulk with a discount and then sells it via eBay to mostly europe. Goth Emo stuff especially... Nightmare Before Xmas and stuff like that...just avoid most of Asia and soyth of the border...

              Ebay to Mexico = Bad

              I have a passport, being a "war correspondent" would be kind of cool... until I'm captured and beheaded and the video is on Al Jazeera claiming that I'm a spy b/c they uncovered my USMC tats while ass-raping me

                      wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't against the law...

                      become a politician & legalize it?

                        Give it 10 years. It will be legal then. In California some dudes are making some tall cash with the state laws decriminalizing it. My guess is whatever company emerges as the largest/most organizes in serving the pot industry in CA is well position to set up shop in each State that follows in decrimalizing it. If you think Starbucks and Subway were growing at a high rate (pun intended:p ) once they started to roll out to other states...you will be blown away at how quickly shops will set up in new states. Tons of cash flow with very little overhead.

                        If I was ambitious...I'd go to California...learn the LEGAL pot distribution business inside out. I would have EVERYTHING ready when other states legalize it. You would have to move fast and capture the market share.

                        Then I'd stack my tall cash, go around yelling ... "I'm rich Biatch!"
