Do you have a hustle?

I buy used autos at the auction for 800-1500 and sell for 2000-4000. I also mow yards and landscape during the spring - fall. The lawn care business is very profitable with a little effort.

Shoes are a great way to make money if you have the connections and funds to purchase them. Especially Jordans, LeBrons, Pennys, and other Nike basketball shoes. Sold my whole collection for about $2500.

I build tables, corn hole boards, remodel homes on a smaller scale, build decks, pour concrete. Whatever I can find that I know for sure I can do well, I will throw a dollar amount at and hope to get the work. It pays for my sporting events, my hunting trips, my vacations and the occasional gift for the misses.

Let's talk about fanduel or any other of those sites. Can it really be profitable? What kind of money?

I have thought about it but haven't had the courage to try it. I play in 4 fantasy leagues, so this intrigues me.

How much do you charge for a corn hole board?

Can anybody attend auto auctions and buy?

Depends. Some auctions are dealer only, and some are open to the public. Just inquire at a local auction and they can normally point you in the right direction. There's two auctions open to the public I attend in the tricities.

I have a sideline hustle. I deal in used tattoos. I've had skin in the game for about a decade.

Occasionally, I'll clean and detail cars. I don't know why, but I've always been really good at it. The work isn't nearly as bad as it seems, just takes some attention to detail. Money is insanely easy. I honestly thought about going full time with it before I enlisted.

It can be, but there's definitely a luck factor. I only play NHL contests, I do fairly well but at the end of the day it's like betting on thoroughbreds, where luck and strategy are about equally important.

I play a lot of the 50/50s and do pretty well. I also play in some of the tournaments that are for huge payouts but that is where luck is really involved. The sites are legit if you do your research.

I've only made one to sale and the rest as gifts so I am not sure. I made a custom UT cornhole board with white trim an I burned the wood to give it an aged looked with 3 coats of poly. It tuned out great. I'll take a picture and let you guys look at it.

Here is my personal table I built for my dining room. It's farmhouse style and is 48"w x 108"L.

That's a good gig. Materials are next to nothing. I find detailing cars to be enjoyable, but waxing is an art that I'm no master of.

Nice work. I'd be interested in a UT corn hole board like you described.

50/50s? I think I was explained this but probably forgot. Are these capped at 50 people and top half wins something?

I also find it enjoyable. Waxing isn't hard, it's just the most work. You have to know the condition of the surface. A lot of times you need to use a restoration or cleaning wax first. Almost always, I find it's better to that Danielson style, with just your arms and hands. Then put on the shine with a carnauba or designed for shine liquid wax. A buffer there will yield the best results, but you need ideal temps, not hot, not cold, no direct sunlight.

My enemy is spotless windows.

Thanks. We moved into a bigger home and during the selling process, a lady placed a contract on our house. She also requested our old dining room table and living room furniture. So I agreed to sale it to her.

After 6 weeks and 2 delayed closing all because of her financing, I got a little frustrated,went to Lowes and stayed up late on a Friday to build this thing. It turned out great and Ive been asked to build a few more as well.
