How a semi-literate friend of a friend took the online plunge

Published: Thu, 01/25/18

This one takes the cake.

A friend in Connecticut has a handyman he’s known for years, now semi-retired and living off Social Security. And selling used books on the side.

He goes to garage sales in the area, which tends to have people with some books. He says he has no idea what the books are, but “some of them are old.”

He can read and write but not so much. He puts the books on Amazon, checks out the prices of his competition -- but sometimes the book is rare and there is no competition, then sits back and waits.

He doesn’t have a care in the world. But he makes a few thousand bucks a year from his kind-of hobby.

How dumb is this man? Not a bit.

Without even trying, he’s making more than a ton of my very-smart readers who keep thinking about getting into a Web-business but just can’t find the time, or the nerve...or maybe aren’t yet convinced it can really work.

Folks, it works.

And you don't have to go to garage sales, or handle inventory, or list anything on Amazon. My friend-of-a-friend's business is like the Model T. Steve Clayton's is a Maserati.

Not sure how else to put this: you are doing yourself a serious disservice if you miss the replay of our live session the other night. It makes sense, and it works, and the guys presenting it to you are the cream of the crop with excellent reputations.

You'll also see case studies of actual people who are making not a few thousand a year, but a few thousand or much more a month -- simply because they work like it's 2018, not 1958.

But it's being taken down soon.
