My friend makes around $200 a week just selling the old furniture and stuff that his neighbors put out in the trash.

Yes - essentially dumpster diving, but he says he can flip the stuff via Craigslist in less than 24 hours usually.

I’ve heard of people who do this strictly with couches. Helps to have a truck, garage/storage, and someone to help load it. You can easily get a few hundred bucks a week for a couple hours and a little bit of gas.

They had a TV show about this that was quite popular. It was called storage wars.

I’ll start hooking up with someone with no intention of dating them because of red flags, but if the sex is good I want to lock it down for the future (even if we are not compatible in our personality, I’ll start to see them in a positive way and flirt more since it makes the sex even better)! The guy starts to think I want a relationship (which is half true) and then distances himself. Anyone else go through this cycle?
