How can I do this?
It helps if you have a little background in blogging or some form of journalism. But basically I found a website that offers to pay you by writing articles for different companies that are start up or established.

You are given a list of companies and their product and you choose from the list who you want to write about. You're paid based on how many words it contains and it's not mandatory that you do it everyday, it's like the journal version of Uber/lyft.

Cool lil side gig

People are eating and them belly full but still don't share shyt. There are legit people that can help out in their knowledge but don't be laying the blueprint out for fellow brehs to come up. I know multiple people are from Atlanta and they eating but I try to get something on and popping they response with this dumass smiley: :mjpls: SMH at some of y'all.

For any Coli members with a knack for writing, this is phenomenal.

Care to share what you average money wise on a typical week, and how many hours you put into it a week?
For maximum amount 1500-2000 words are expected, me personally will write as little as 300 words then up to 700. That will get me around $30 to $40 per a article. It helps of course to so your research on what you're writing about and to include things like competitors, locations world wide, etc. I'll put a hour or two in to write but you're on your own time. Just don't procrastinate if you promised a date to be done and have it submitted

So as my ecommerce store continues to take life, I've also managed to finally receive my shipment with my logo attached.

I planned on doing a test sell on Amazon but these guys charging all kind of fees that make no sense. :martin:


Ebay it is:yeshrug:


This is an important next step I guess I'd call 'product sampling': A good time to confirm demand and advertise the products and experiment with different prices. I've ordered two so far, but if these two sell well, I know I'll have a winner then probably scale up to 20 for my ecommerce store.

Brehs I have a question, how do yall minimise your spending and bad habits? I thought this thread my be a good place to ask


One of the easiest ways of comimg up is maximising income and minimalising expenditure. Im terrible at saving money though brehs and honestly I dont know why. Maybe because I didn't have shyt growing up but it would be great to find ways to lower my spending. Im gonna try open another bank account and make monthly deposits to that account from my.main one so I can't touch that money

Well a big part of it is indeed developing that discipline, while also expecting to not be perfect.

A part of it involves that kind of soul searching you started doing just now. Even if that is the way you are, that doesn't define the way you'll always be.

You have the right idea, I'm a big fan of doing whatever it takes to help hold true to your goals, even if it means things like creating a second bank account.

Do you engage in any self development books at all?

On what grounds? I do admit both have their advantages.

Ultimately, I will be hosting my own ecommerce store to minimize fees.

I've recently figured out that I'll never hit my target amount of money by just working. I need to figure out a side hustle. In.
