0:00.0	I've got a couple plug-and-play side hustles for you today that are quick and easy to start.
0:05.2	Ready? Let's do it!
0:08.0	This has been times I've made like $800 in a day, or even there was one weekend we made $2,000
0:13.4	in a whole weekend. That's Chris Torres from Long Island. He and his wife are furniture flippers
0:18.0	through a company called Share Town. And how it works is you get assigned these local
0:22.2	furniture returns and mattress returns. You take them back, you clean them up, and then you
0:26.0	listen to resale on Facebook Marketplace, whatever else that you like. And the cool thing about it,

1:17.4	got a separate storage facility at this point? Yeah, exactly. We started on garage and now we

1:31.2	it's a nice size vehicle. You can have fold down the seats and put the stuff in the back.
