I met a gentleman once who said he would buy vintage cars, and rather than fixing them up, he would "part them out."

[@paulstandaert5709]

2:25. Yeah.... I've tried that car flipping thing. It doesn't work out so well. The reason is that there are too many people out there who think they can do it, so they push up the price of the vehicles at the auctions. And speaking of which, why are they at the auction? They are there because someone else already looked at it and didn't want it. Otherwise, repair shops would double as a used car dealer, but they typically do not. There's way more money in fixing them than there is buying them, fixing them, and re-selling them. Buying one to sell later is only what you do when you have a smoking deal just happen to fall on your lap and/or your shop's business just happens to be slow.

People throw around the term "passive income" too loosely. In my opinion, there's no such thing as "truly passive income". It's almost like a crop. You have to take the time to "plant seeds" and get the thing started. And then you just have to "water it" to keep it going. But not PASSIVE. Also, selling random planners and stuff online is half and half. Not just anyone can do that. It's a bit better suited for influencers, or business owners who have a following where they can point you to the product IMO.

I question the income level and steadiness of income with a vending machine but I think the biggest problem is where do you put it? Any business will want a cut of what you get. You need permission from the city bus agency to put it at a bus station where it will most likely be destroyed (noticed at Madison, WI bus transfer points that they disappeared because of that reason). Most likely vending machines would be a good thing in someone's den or man cave so they wouldn't have to go all the way to the kitchen to get a sparkling water or diet soda if you rig it like in the movie "Big" where Tom Hank's character had a vending machine where he didn't have to insert coins.

And whatever business allows you to put a vending machine at their location is likely going to require that you carry insurance

Imo all of the guys opinions were valid side hustles, just not passive income

[@JazChapmanTV]

Flipping is not passive income, it's active!

[@last_samurai6690]

Super active. Wouldnt even do it

[@danbiddick9610]

Officiating sports is a great side hustle and def needed.

[@dylan9013]

I used to do that until I couldn't stand the parents anymore.

[@danbiddick9610]

That's a reason it's definitely needed. But once you learn how to manage everything it's not so bad

[@user-ex2yt1pl6u]

George is dead wrong for claiming that there is no such thing as passive income.

[@Belizean205]

I cash n bought a Honda cash out. Had I emergency fund n put transmission in a month later

I should go to america. 😂 Because as Filipino, we are happy cleaning up. 😅

The value of the side hustle I think depends on what you do for a career. If your career has upside then why would you put the extra time to a side hustle?

You don't need to put others down to promote yourselves. DR has built the reputation over many years, don't lose it by putting others down.

[@Joker22593]

Reasonable disagreement, which is what happened here, is not putting anybody down.

If it doesn’t make money without any effort on your part, it’s not passive income. A side hustle is not passive. Only investing money into companies/ventures for a future return on that investment are passive. It’s important to understand this because the tax treatments for passive income and losses are different and can’t always be blended with your active income.

[@cxa011500]

There are probably a lot of people who try those things and don’t make any money.

Sofa flipping and clothes flipping bring the risk of bed bugs.

Flipping cars. Been there, done that. I never ever buy a car, leave the title open (ie don't put it your name) and resell it. What happens if your buyer leaves the car in your name, and has a nasty accident? You may be on the hook. Many states limit non licensed used used car dealers to 5 sales a year. Do you plan to tell your insurance company about your side hustle? The vast, vast majority of buyers are absolutely unable to judge the condition of a used car. I was a former mechanic and body man. One bad transmission, months of profits are gone. If an unhappy buyer sues, they may not collect anything, but you get to pay your lawyer.
