lmfao. Good luck mate! Let me know the secret formula once you find it.

I heard there's a rollover on the Euromillions tomorrow.
Heres an idea, when OP does find the secret formula, he can sell it for passive income.

i don't use shopify bro. i have another formula that i use w/ amazon to dropship.

my advice with shopify as i know loads of people making 100k+ a month on it. is to reverse engineer those successful websites.

you need to do and copy what those stores do. that's really it. people get emotional and try to be the next quasimoto selling something that they think will sell. like some generic shiit.

never works. advertising has to be generous when starting out, im not talking about 5 day, 100 a day is more like it. get to see what works and what doesn't. data is everything.

once you get that you build a funky email list and then every month you sit back then watch money deposit into your account.

no thread since obviously what i do is blackhat. i know you didn't know but yeah it is. can't put too much info out there but just know this fact :

whitehat is going to take years to build. grey hat takes not long and blackhat is instantaneous result. all about who you know and who is willing to help you.

3-4k a week is nothing compared to others i know 10k per week is more like it. 30k - 40k a month is regular. 100k a month is doing good. im not even an master yet.

but guys i know have houses in Spain, exotic cars, n stuff..etc. but they have big accounts and have been doing since 2009.

i have a youtube channel with 100k clicks, linked with a url shortener but youtube cucked me by changing the monetization. Now you need 1000 subs and 4000 hours of watch time to be able to earn money, the linked url shortener makes less than a buck per month

write an ebook is another option

or you can lend your expertise to help others, if you can do something very well

I'm not sure if Amazon FBA is still as lucrative as it once was, but I know people who have literally made a killing on there and have been able to quit their day jobs.

The premise is you are purchasing generic products wholesale from China, importing them into the US and using Amazon's FBA program to sell your branded product for a profit to stateside customers. Amazon takes care of shipping, returns, customer service and everything else except than branding, packaging and importing. Of course they take their cut, but if you're buying a pallet from Asia for like 50¢/unit and selling them for $20 on Amazon USA, you'll still have an insane amount of room to earn a living.

It's A TON of work and research up front, but once your product is up and running, you'll be working like 4 hours a week dead srs.

Now I've HEARD that various factors such as tariffs, increased competition and greed from Amazon have really made it far more difficult to be successful with this nowadays but it's worth looking into.

I was thinking about doing this for spring-summer-fall lawn mowing/maintenance.
Would have to invest like $5-8k for a truck, mower, blower, and trimmer.
Toughest part would be building up the client list, but a minimal effort of posting on ******** and craigslist at the very least once per day only takes a few minutes.
Then find someone you can trust, hire them and have them mow lawns for those seasons while you sit back and dont get dirty.

I see. I know of a guy who sells makeup products off a subscription, which auto-charges credit cards. He apparently deals with alot of complaints but he's wealthy. I'm assuming that's blackhat? lol.

i give back because bb.com has helped me immensely back in 2015 era where it was poppin.

just to give you a glimpse of this lifestyle.. i work 15 minutes a day..sometimes none at all literally. i make 400 dollars a day with my eyes closed. i eat whatever i want delivered to me at any time of the day..etc.

Nah, that's pretty whitehat because if he gets a lot of complaints and he's still around to sell them no one is charge-backing their credit cards because of his demand of his product being sold.

I'll assume he's on shopify payments program and they're the most lenient payment processor around next to paypal or adyen merch accounts like bofa, or wells fargo.

I know seller that cleaned up a lot of his shipping times because he was getting sued L+R so he had to get a warehouse in LA now he's doing a okay. but he's what created demand.

you can't let your customers get 100% of your brand because it gets saturated. make people wait and get it on your time like a boss. can take months or a year. create demand and people will follow.

damn interesting. Your last point is so true though. We obviously see it in the fitness/supp industry where people can flat out fabricate a need for consumers and then provide their solution.

LOL

I love people who ask questions like "How can I make a lot of money with no effort, no skills, and requires no capital investment or time investment, Pls halp Misc."


Like wut?

To have a thought like that is to basically admit "I suck at life, I try to take the easy way out of everything, and I'm a weak willed little snowflake and I don't want to grow or challenge myself by actually doing anything difficult, or taking the time to master a skill, life is so unfair.....now that I think about it....I've probably been discriminated against. My SJW college teacher just told me the white male patriarchy is to blame for this, not my own laziness!"

Yeah and don't fuk with that rental car chit... Lyft is charging $200+ per week to loan rental cars to drivers.

Not sure how that's worth unless you're making several thousand a month, in which case your life must be rideshare driving.

I invest all my money in peer to peer lending, I have 7.6% guaranteed returns/without doing anything at all, I literally do nothing.
At such growths the more capital you invest the better

I started doing Uber when it first came to my city. Was clearing $150+ within 2 hours on Saturday nights. The rates were good and the passengers wasn't entitled f*cks. I haven't drove in over a year.

sry for hurting your feelings brah

you are half intelligent if you got a math degree. i am guessing oxford or cambridge

why don't you do a math club for kids on the weekend. try get 10+ of those little kunts together and charge $$$

it isn't passive but surely beats whatever else you are doing to currently live on poverty time

if you have a good body and use instagram you could make a myfans account for some srs bread

Hope I answered your question! Happy to help!
Pretty true tbh. Everyone's always looking for the magic pill or the "hidden secret" or the "next big thing". People are always attracted to flashy methods. That's why new fad diets always become hits. My mom is even doing intermittent fasting when all she ever had to do was just eat less. Tell somebody to eat mushrooms and drink wine to raise their testosterone they're going to do it. Tell them how much sleep affects it and they don't fuking care.
Death is impossible for us to fathom: it is so immense, so frightening, that we will do almost anything to avoid thinking about it. Society is organized to make death invisible, to keep it several steps removed. That distance may seem necessary for our comfort, but it comes with a terrible price: the illusion of limitless time, and a consequent lack of seriousness about daily life. We are running away from the one reality that faces us all.

Debating whether to come back to this thread and neg the idiots / idiotic answers, just like the one I'm replying to now.
Neg away. OP isn't always a *******, but in this thread, he is.
