Creating your own job and Seed Money

Seed money-say you have no money, but a lot of junk! Used books, toys, computers, anything....clutter. Clear the clutter, have a garage sale!!!!! Then you may have what is called 'seed' money! Ok, you have had a successful garage sale! Yay! You made a gross of $100! Say you are a girl, and now you have that extra $100- you stop by your local GOODWILL store and see womens purses and handbags, or shoes, for sale for say $3 each. Nice ones. You can buy 20 units and have $40 leftover so on the way home you can have a nice fresco taco at Taco Bell for a $1!!!! Ok so now you have 20 units of women's fashion items on hand. You are in business! Sidebar-savor the feeling you are having, a positive rush, of having purpose! You are in business!!!! No more sitting around feeling blase! No more sitting around hearing some multimillionaire politician telling you how evil all the other multi millionaire politicians are!!!! Ok you are home now, what to do. You need a place to sell these items. Write out your inventory list! Keep one nice bag for yourself! Take photo's of each bag or pair of shoes with your smartphone... Ok, you have decided to go to a local flea market and market your items on a stand at the flea market. Consider your markup -buyers want a deal, yet they almost always buy buy on impulse. You paid $3 for each item so say you mark up each item to $6... Bake some brownies or cookies or better yet buy some cookies and have them out on your flea market table along with your items Remember people almost always buy on impulse! Good luck!
