    So many YouTube videos about:

    -drop shipping

    -having third world countries produce your generic "merch" for your "brand"

    -flipping items from Goodwill or garage sales on EBay/OfferUp/Poshmark/Mercari,

    -buying in bulk from Costco and piecemealing it out onto Amazon Marketplace

    -buying huge pallets of returned Amazon items and flipping them on the aforementioned sites and apps

    Just a cycle of churning plastic nonsense

    “Side hustles” and “grinding” is just going on 1688.com or alibaba.com, ordering trinkets and doohickeys, registering an LLC, then selling them on Amazon. All while being a rabid reactionary who is angry about china stealing our jobs and how their products are cheap junk

    Then you save up for your main hustle, which is buying real estate and becoming a landlord

        I’ve met a lot of young “entrepreneurs” with that narcissistic, patronizing positivity when they talk about “success.” It’s pretty crazy how everyone I’ve met in real life with these goals and mindsets have left me wanting to beat the shit out of them just for being annoying.

    Some of them involve distribution, it's just that you're the customer and it's a pyramid scheme

    That's the real deal though. How many people are rich from harvesting, refining, crafting or even distributing actual goods or services? Labouring and being a prole pays jack shit, so the answer is nowhere near as many as those who are rich from doing fuck all. Within capitalism, hustlegrinding being 'do completely pointless shit' makes complete sense.
