Saw a lot of post recently about money. I was interested to see if anyone had any side gigs they did for extra hunting/spending money. If so, what are some side gigs y'all ventured in?
learn how to dance with a buffer with a hogs hair pad and make that floor shine
Same thing as my day job.... before I became the boss man. Tree work.
How far will you travel....and are you insured?
I buy and sell used or new goods. Mostly sporting goods type stuff but also anything I can make $$$ of of. I love going to the habitat store and scoring "junk" that I can make 10x ROI
Y’all looking for an extra dancer? I’m about to lose my job probably.Me and the boys started our own dance troupe

Where do you look for most of your antiques/junk, flea markets, yard sales?I'm right there with you. I do a little of this and a little if that, but this right here is still about the most satisfying.
I guess the main reason is, when I was going through school, and broke, I studied up on A Lot of things. One being maker's marks and purity marks.
Within a couple weeks of each other... I bought a Sterling silver John Millward Banks Hot Milk Pot, made in Chester, England, 1902 for $12.75. Immaculate piece. Wanted to keep it, needed the money, sold it for over $250 iirc.... Then I found a 1911 Sterling silver candy dish for 50 cents. Sold it for $211.
I made a lot of money selling other antiques but, finally got to a place of financial peace, now hunt mostly for keeping and using. The contents of our kitchen cabinets, would rival anybody's grandparents. Lol.
