The Side Hustle Show
What if you could make $900 in a single day buying and reselling lawnmowers?
Dave Wilson, also known as @MoneyCoachDave, made over $50,000 flipping lawnmowers while in college. The side hustle helped him graduate debt-free and taught him valuable skills in buying, fixing, and reselling equipment.
It’s a buy low, sell high model that works whether you’re flipping lawnmowers, cars, or other equipment. And it’s a skill that can recession-proof your income.
Listen to Episode 713 of the Side Hustle Show to learn:
- how to source underpriced lawnmowers (including the best-kept secret)
- what to look for when buying (and what to avoid)
- how to fix common issues and flip them fast
