I'm 27, and after a 6 year career with a large company, I'm on my kiester, surprise surprise. I have a car and a truck, I have major retail merchandising and management skills, am automotive certified ASE, can cook clean sew sing build have lots of charisma and good ethics. I'm soooooo tired of being treated like trash in the workforce. So I'm ready to make money for myself and my kiddos, because with the current business and management ethics of what seems to be everyone, I can't get ahead. What's a good way to start making money independently, even if I have to spend my last fifty dollars.

Have you looked into sales, how many jobs have you applied to. But business ethics have not changed, still often those that brown nose or are family members get promoted first.

Also today there is about 20 to 100 applications for any one job. Locally they had a new business open with about 40 openings ( all low level and low paying) and there was over 1000 people lined up for applications the morning they started doing applications.

Not sure what a auto ASE is, but if it means you can work on cars or trucks, do that on the side at peoples homes to earn money till something comes up.

I do not want to work for someone. Certified by the national institute for Automotive Service Excellence. So I can work on cars, I would just like to try my hand at a good "hustle" to see where it might lead me.

I know what you could do. Make a video on how to get people to send you $20. Sell it on eBay for $20 problem solved. Lol. Just kidding buddy make sure what ever you decide is legal. Cause hustle and jail go together like peas and carrots.
