    Ah yes. How to get by without a job:

    • Fraud (false warranty claims)
    • Theft (stealing coins from vending machine)
    • Gambling (crypto)
    • Literally just self-employment (starting a drop shipping business/flipping things on eBay)

      yeah you’re only allowed to do those things if you have a net worth over 25 million

    Crypto trade

    There’s where all the money went I guess. Gotta steal toilet paper to leverage that crypto position. (After you’ve already lost everything several times)

      You can make significant money by trading crypto peer-to-peer. It is incredibly risky but you can make around 6-7% profit after fees. I made around 2,000-3,000 USD monthly, moving around 40,000 USD in volume. The main risks are chargebacks and account closures.

      It wasn’t free money, of course. But the effort-to-profit ratio is pretty high once you figure out how to weed the good clients from the bad (scammers who will pay, receive crypto, and then dispute the payment).

      Do not ask me how to do this and do not reply to anyone who comments below claiming to know how, because they’re probably a scammer.

        Investments are not effort-to-profit. They are risk-to-profit.

        There is no such a thing as risk-free investing. If there is an investment with good returns, it means it’s just as easy to lose all that money.

        A high effort to profit ratio would mean a lot of effort for a little profit.

      A less ethical, worse paid, more hours than a job.

    That seems like a lot of constant hustle to get out of having an actual job

      it is legitimately better than having a real job though. I absolutely hate working for myself but working for somebody else is even worse

        Not when you make 100 times as much.

    This is why companies have cheap toilet paper by the way. Not because they necessarily hate their employees, but because it would get stolen and they’d need three times as much.

    Also one of the reasons why the huge rolls exist like you see at airports: impractical to use at home.

    • nxdefiant@startrek.website ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I stole one of those huge rolls from college once. It dispenses just fine on the floor.

        Do people find changing the roll that much of a hassle?

    • Etterra@lemmy.world ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Joke’s on them, when I have to use cheap TP I have to use 3x as much because it’s such cheap trash.

      source
    • Jolteon@lemmy.zip ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Huh, I always assume that it was because cheap toilet paper was cheap, and big rolls meant you didn’t have to replace them as often.

      Depending on the bathroom, some universities have decent TP. I’d say research buildings that you don’t need card access to get in. Most of those I’ve worked at seem to be decent.

        You find something cheap from China, then you flip it to suckers on Etsy for 10x the cost.

        Storefront without stock, when you get order just pass it on to a whole seller with their shipping address.

    • sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      The last three are horseshit.

      Say what you will about the morality of the other but at least they are reasonably likely to actually work.

      The last three are not.

      Crypto is insane horseshit unless you are running a scam, which at best is a huge amount of effort and at worst is oops time to flee to thailand.

      Drop shipping and ‘picking’ is basically boomer nonsense that requires a huge investment of time, space and money to conceivably make it worthwhile, and it almost always goes wrong, and you end up with a garage or storage unit full of useless crap that won’t sell either at all, or for a profit.

      • RobertoOberto@sh.itjust.works ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Flipping second-hand goods hasn’t been viable at any large in over a decade. Too many people know how to use the Internet now, and usually google their shit before it goes on the garage sale or flea market table. The days of finding that rare vase or vintage toy that the owner doesn’t know the value of are gone.

    Sending in Sennheisers for warranty is silly. Their headphones are basically bullet proof, at least their typical wired open cans.

    • Justas@sh.itjust.works ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I have a Bluetooth headset made by Sennheiser. It’s battery died in the first two years of use. So I bought a new battery, except it was bigger.

      When I opened it up it turned out that they have thought about someone wanting a bigger battery and I only needed to break a couple of small plastic pieces to fit a longer battery in. The headset has worked fine since.
