I can criticize it because I’m getting fucked monthly by healthcare premiums for my family
Replying to @JHartFlips
You can't criticize something without having a better alternative option. Where's Trump with his beautiful healthcare plan that he's been yapping about since 2016?

Obamacare wrecking people
BREAKING: The average cost of a family’s annual health insurance premium in the US is up +$1,303 YoY, or +5%, to a record $28,303. This marks the 4th consecutive annual increase of at least +$1,300. Over this period, the average annual premium for family coverage has surged +$5,884, or +26%. To put this into perspective, CPI inflation has risen +13% over the same period, or half as much. Since 1999, the average health insurance premium for a family has soared +$22,494, or +387%. This represents an average annual growth rate of +6.1%, well above CPI inflation at +2.6% over the same period. Health insurance has never been more expensive.

I started around the same time. Tried a bunch of things including Amazon. I was inspired by @JHartFlips, @ZachAltmyer , and @WestCoast_Goodz to really make a go at arbitrage. I loved sourcing and Amazon started well for me. My speciality was Costco arbitrage all said. But my passion had always been Comics. Using the principals of sourcing that I learned from the fellas lead to me owning and operating a comic business. Our Ecommerce brand is a fantastic business, the brick and mortar not so much for now. I would not have started without the support and coaching only a community of like minded people can provide. Follow & learn from these folks here, niche down into what works for you. Your end will probably be different from the start but the journey along the way will be fun.
Back in 2018, I wanted to make an extra $500 a month. I tried blogging, fixing iPhones, dropshipping. None of them stuck. I bought an Art of Flipping course on Twitter. Listed a few things around the house to learn how. Sold most of them in a week and I was hooked. Moved to garage sales and thrift stores. Scanned as much as I could and flipped a few more things. Then I moved to clearanced products in local pharmacies and hardware stores, stumbled upon gold finding a couple discontinued products Took the leap and started selling on Amazon in 2021. Discovered Toyfolio, which taught me how to buy and hold toys and that helped me figure out how to do it with regular household products. Had the pleasure of serving as a mod for Products for Profit and now RA Playbook Connected with some big-time sellers who were way smarter than me. Opened my eyes over the years. Took a chance by starting a newsletter about discontinued products on Substack. In just a year, over 1,000 subscribers at different tiers. Been doing it all part-time. Plenty of highs and lows. Made a lot of mistakes but more importantly, I learned a lot about myself along the way. Reselling is one crazy journey.

If people used hours worked to purchase x,y, & z, I believe there would be less dumb shit purchased If you make $20/hr and you want the new iPhone that costs $2600, it’s not $2600. It’s 130 hours of work 3.25 40 hr work weeks

I would like my payment in Bitcoin Mr Orange man…
BREAKING: President Trump reveals his new anti-fraud program set up to reward people who expose fraud with a 1% commission on the money uncovered. "If you turn somebody in and you, let's say report and you find $1 billion, we are giving a commission to that person of 1%."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
DOJ's published guidance caps individual whistleblower rewards at up to $30,000 per tip, not an uncapped 1% of fraud uncovered, with a total program fund of $25 million. A $1 billion fraud tip would not yield a $10 million payout under the official program rules. newsweek.com/trump-vance-of… foxnews.com/politics/trump…

There are some things you should say on social media. This is not one of them
Having to ask my wife for money to pay bills. For a few months now, she has had a separate bank account because I drained ours to cover margin calls but I’ve now drained my own bank account to the point that I don’t have enough to cover bills. So now I have to see if she can transfer money to my account to pay the bills about to hit because these markets aren’t recovering enough for me to get out of margin call and put money back. Exhausting stuff. Everyone is getting wiped.
