Saw a post today about a girl being a “pet psychic” who is apparently super successful. Wondered what other examples are out there.

I’m still wondering how many gumballs you’d need to flip to be making that kind of money. Was he traveling over the border with a semitrailer of gum?
All he did was collect money all day long. He had a whole network of gumball machines at every Hollywood Video, Blockbuster, and a lot of theaters. He just played his niche hard. He obviously had employees.
The gum ball entrepreneurs were the real victims of the streaming revolution.
You probably need a decent number of machines, and it probably takes a bit to get there - but I’d imagine each machine only needs to be collected once every few weeks. Own 500 machines, collect 20 a day, maybe $100 in each machine collected… suddenly you’re pulling in $10K/week on fucking penny gumballs.
You’d have to pay the location something. Why would a store owner let you take up floor space for free?
They pay rent for the space.
I mean… think about it. Let’s say your cost per gumball is 5 cents and you sell them for 50 cents. So 45 cents gross rev. For every 1000 you sell it’s $450. Get 20 of those going and it’s $9k/week or a bit over $450k/year.
