I might actually make money doing something other than spamming /c/mutual_aid and making everyone hate me (hexbear.net)

I picked up a bike someone left out with a “Free” sign taped to it and put it online. Finally after a couple weeks someone bit on it. I’m picking it up from my storage unit and meeting the person tonight. I could make $100. Lowest I’ll take is probably like $75 unless there’s a good reason for a lower offer (like the brakes being fucked off or something).

I wish I could make selling stuff online into more of a hustle but idk. I suppose I could try doing what my father used to make me do with him: go to yard sales on weekends and buy things that can be upsold.

Yay.

I don't know if it is that people hate you, I think it's more people get frustrated, because they want to see your life improve, rather than be at a standstill, but sometimes just "surviving" is all we can manage, and some of us have longer periods of our lives where survival is the only thing we can focus on than others do. At least that's my thoughts when I see your posts.
