There are plenty of people who will help set up and run your drop shipping for a fee. You take all the risk and split the profits with them. 1234

If if you place tiny little ads in the classifieds for drop shipping training courses Don Lapre would smile on you from heaven. drop shipping like what atom described is a rough business. China isn’t easy to master. And using amazon is great until it’s not. You don’t control the platform so you are at its whims. Pretty much anyone selling shit has to figure out Amazon with some exceptions so I’m not saying avoid it, but building a legit company is pretty hard working China and Amazon as your vendor and sales channels.
October 31, 20232 yr Capital chases returns. If you start making a boat load of money selling Chinese rubber dogshit on your Amazon storefront there are going to be a ton of people(including Amazon) trying to replicate that success.
November 6, 20232 yr This dumbass I work with just spent 3 days telling me about the $80k he lost to an Amazon and Walmart drop-shipping scam and his legal woes trying to sue the Canadian drop-ship management company with Caribbean bank accounts that took his money and then closed up shop.

November 7, 20232 yr He can be a boss, or a leader. Boss's suck because they lead by decree. Leaders lead by example and respect. If he wants to attract and retain top talent, then being a boss isn't the way to do it.
November 7, 20232 yr Whatever the degree, learn and master hard work, master your topic. Then, master the subject of people. If you are a good match, the boss things come. At my prior company, we emphasized the needs, and reward, for expert practitioners. Errbody wanted to go into supervising. The market forces pushed up the levels for the ind. practitioner, to a quite decent major boss level. The supervisors and mid managers hated this, as being against the natural order. Just supply and demand. Nothing inherently good, or bad, about boss jobs.

December 1, 20232 yr There is only one gig that guarantees you will be a sit around and do nothing millionaire! How he becomes the Aggie's head coach is the question...
December 25, 20231 yr Being a boss sucks. I don't know what they're teaching these days but even the really smart kids are coming into our company doing dumb shit and needing way more hand holding than even 15 years ago. I'm just waiting for my girls to finish school and be on their own then we can downsize like a mofo and live a bohemian type life. Or maybe I'll start a business hiring hot ass 20 year olds to do yoga in bikinis and video it for YouTube dollars.
December 25, 20231 yr Have him hire a friend to film things. Go in public and punch people in the face.
December 29, 20231 yr I’ve never met my boss. I hear he’s a great guy and would help me out if ever needed. I’m happy to have never received so much as a personal email or phone call from him. If we passed each other he wouldn’t recognize me. If someone told him my name, he would not have any clue who I was. As long as I don’t fuck up he will never know who I am. And my job is so much better than his. Fuck being a boss.

In my first job, the director above my direct manager didn't know I existed. I was at a meeting with him once and he asked what I did for the company. His peer director said, "Steve, he works for you." An hour later, he walked in and gave me a mid-year pay raise. Unfortunately, that was the only time in 25 years, that has happened.
