Episode 960
THEMES & TAKEAWAYS: We’ve just finished week 33 of Season III! This week featured a sports writer who wins big gambling on his own book, a British family who sells political tea towels, and a high school bootlegger who grows up but never loses his entrepreneurial spirit. I’ve got an audio update for you about a previously featured side hustler who has since gone full-time, but first, let’s talk about Retail Arbitrage! I read an article recently from about people earning money by buying stuff from retail stores, then selling it online for a higher price. In some ways, the more things change, the more they stay the same. This is what I did 20 years ago! Listen to the Weekly Recap to learn more on this topic and to hear from Charlotte of Whisked Away—a side hustler we featured in our first year!
WHERE ARE THEY NOW: Today, we have an update from Charlotte McGhee who was featured on the show in Ep. 346. Listen to the Weekly Recap to hear from Charlotte! You can also check out her website, Whisked Away!
