    Some people just have money come at 'em. Know a dude that worked his way up from changing oil at a Jiffy Lube kinda place to $120K in 6 or 8 years. He just kept getting experience and swapping jobs.

    I know this chick that can’t stop money coming at her. LOL, he and her husband would go around the nice neighborhood on trash day, pick up the goods, sell it back to them on the weekend. Made $300-$400 every Saturday.

    Previous dude picked up free, or nearly free, washers and dryers. Fixed 'em for change, flipped them on FB Marketplace. He made about $600/week. I just found a nice, new dryer on the road that needed a $13 belt. Selling that tomorrow for $150-$200.

    You will not get significantly more money at your job, and you’ll never get money working hourly.
