I buy broken stuff online, fix and sell. I enjoy it, worst case I break even.

The trick is to lowball desperate sellers. They want stuff gone, I don't need to buy.

I also grab my neighbors 'junk' they throw out and sell it online. Lawnmowers, electrical panels, yard tools. It's amazing what people throw away.

I make enough money that I cover the cost of all my tools, and I'm getting a rather large tool collection.

As an aside, I save a lot of money by never renting tools. I buy used stuff and flip it when I'm done. If your knowledgeable you can even make a few bucks.

But real money? 1. Real estate. 2. Don't get married. 3. If you do get married, stay married.
