Notes from Chris

Episode 1876
Today’s question brings up one of my long-ago lifelong goals. I’ve previously mentioned how I really, really wanted to own a Mail Boxes Etc. franchise. Another thing I wanted to do was be an airline courier and/or get paid to drive other people’s cars across the United States.

Perhaps that dream started when I was a teenage runaway, heading for Arizona in a stolen Chevy Malibu. This is a true story—unfortunately I didn’t get far. The police authorities managed to convince my friend and I that “there is no Arizona” and my dreams were dashed against the rocks of a juvenile detention center in Huntsville, Alabama. Those were the days!

But let’s stay on topic with our listener’s question. Can you—in 2022—get paid to drive someone’s car across the country when they relocate? News at 10, and my answer in 30 seconds.

"I've heard you can get paid to drive someone's car for them across the country, like when they're relocating for work and don't want to drive. Do you know anything about that? What other opportunities might there be, for example to start a competing service or even just a platform that connects movers with drivers? It seems like a problem that a lot of people face, or at least enough people that it could make for a good side hustle. Any advice is appreciated!"
