MONEY: What was your biggest flip/comeup?

[YoungSinister]

Just saw a thread where someone made $50K off of a $20 bet.
Like Willie D from the Ghetto Boys said. Eventually, you're going to hit a lick and come up on a large sum of money. What you do with it next is up to you


Years ago I was betting on sports on 5dimes. From late February to June, I was putting money down on basketball and soccer. Turned a $500 deposit into a little over $9K. I was a broke ass student at the time, so this was a good come up for me.

Same shit here

Pro tools, a computer, a motu interface, a Roland xp-80, and an ensoniq asr-x pro off a good summer in the streets drove my next 15 years.

Don't know if I can say it was my 'biggest flip' per se, but it was my best investment.

Hit me up on the voice over info. I do about 7 voices/accents, and I'm a damned good singer. I also do a pretty good James Earl Jones. Check godofwine77 on YouTube. I just don't know how to get started

[Llano]

$35k from flipping a property back in 2014. Shit was stressful as fuck though.

 

[Helico-pterFunk]

Lawnmower & gardening tools as a teenager. Able to build up a little client base in the city (one of the customers made me free business cards to help) and I went from there. Able to make $15 - 20 an hour (sometimes a bit more) straight cash in high school in the mid-90s. Lasted for a number of years into my early-20s. Worked for a pro landscaper at 16 - much harder work for less pay though. Helped build my work ethic. Happy to have my own side hustle for better pay though.

 

[HellBoy]

Video camera I bought for black spring break events. Ended up fueling 15 years of sales.

My homie sold over $60K worth of equipment from an old IT job. They were no longer using whatever it was, so he just took it and flipped it on eBay.

Not a huge come up, but I bought a 2003 Honda Accord Ex for $500. The lady was getting rid of it because she took it to an auto zone because of a check engine light. It gave her the code for faulty transmission/speed sensor. Bought it, slapped on a $60 speed sensor and $40 detail, sold it for $5500. All transactions made on craigslist.
