Hi /biz/, never posted on this board before so please excuse my faggotry. That out of the way, I have a question.

Realistically, what would be my best bet for starting up an online business with less than 500 dollars (obviously the closer to 0, the better) that would be able to generate a minimum of 2 grand a month reliably and consistently, and within the shortest amount of time (ideally 6 months or less)? I'm not trying to make a million overnight, I just want something small scale that would allow both me and my gf to quit our jobs so we can focus on our real passions. The income doesn't need to be passive, we are both willing to put in up to 40 hours a week doing it. We just want to be able to work by ourselves, for ourselves.

Any tips or ideas are greatly appreciated, even more so if you can provide detail about specific steps. I can provide more details about my exact situation if anyone wants that info.

I realize 3am may not be the best time to ask this question, but I'm stuck at my job with nothing to do and thought why not. Thanks in advance to anyone that can offer advice

First of all you need to stop thinking about humans as individuals and more like ants or AIs that are programmed to detect opportunities and inefficiencies in the market and exploit them. This is what humans do best. I know it might seem counterintuitive when you see so many fucktards around you, but it's true. If there was an opportunity to turn 500$ into 2000$ per month (a 400% ROI) and 24000$ per year (4800% ROI) someone else, smarter than you, would have found it. Are you exceptional, OP? Are you exceptional enough to find such opportunities? Probably not. Are you deluded enough to think that if someone found such opportunity they would give it to you from the goodness of their heart? Protip: they won't.
>but muh 40 hours work week
that's just turning labour into money. It's called a job and the kikes that provide you with jobs are much better at logistics, strategy, marketing, scaling, etc. than you, so that they can turn your labour into money at a decent and predictable rate.

>to quit our jobs so we can focus on our real passions
>we are both willing to put in up to 40 hours a week doing it
again, that's called a job. I don't see what's stopping you from focusing on your real passions on 40 hour week job vs a 40 hour week business.
The truth is that what you're looking for is a recipe for easy money by putting in the minimum amount of work that people already do at their jobs. Somehow you think you'll compensate for all the disadvantages you have when compared to a real company by using tips and tricks from /biz/ (a board notorious for its neets) and your own qualities that make you exceptional. Right.
In the following posts, people will shit on you in ways you haven't been shat on before. My post should shed some light on why that happened.

Sorry OP. ASking someone for a business idea? Never gonna make it. Guy above me gave you a bitter redpill but he is right.

Except that it's misleading to say the jews are doing this when everyone is doing this. All businesses pay a "competative" salary.

That's about what I expected for the first few replies. I say I'm not trying to make easy money, and I get accused of trying to make easy money. It really isn't hard to imagine how working 40 hours a week at your own scalable business in your own home where you keep 100% of the profits provides more opportunities than commuting to a minimum wage job for 40 hours a week.

If brain dead soccer moms can blog for a couple hours a day and make enough to put their shitty children through school, then obviously there are opportunities out there. I just want to hear the ideas of others. If you don't want to share, no problem. Obviously not the thread for you, so why waste time here?

lmao don't listen to these faggots trying to discourage you. the only way to escape the wage slave cycle is to create value for yourself. that being said, you'll likely have to put in a lot more than your 40 hours a week for a fair amount of time. as far as ideas, find a gap that needs filling. unfortunately nobody can help you there.

I appreciate an actual answer. We're both working on developing marketable skills in our interest areas (for her it's language, for me it's graphic design and video/audio production) and we just want something we can do in the meantime that isn't so soul-sucking. I wasn't exactly expecting a miracle from a 4chan board but thought it might be worth the trouble if even one person has a decent idea.

Let me put it another way so that you can understand. I've worked with companies for a long time. I probably know more about business than anyone on this board and perhaps some top 500 CEOs. I have developed frameworks from how to take a business from 0 to whatever, based on my own experience and the experience of others much smarter than me. I literally have so much useful shit for building and running businesses that it would probably take you weeks to read it all. You know what I don't have? A way/recipe for finding opportunities. That's the difference between me shitposting on /biz/ in my down time and getting accused of LARPing and faggots like Zuckerberg or Steve Jobs that actually find or create opportunities that turn into billion dollar companies. Make no mistake, cause this is by far the hardest part. People are making fun of "idea guys" and somewhat it's true that an idea is nothing without proper execution, but execution is nothing without the right idea at the right time.

The problem is with faggots like you that come on online forums and trivialize the part about finding opportunities/ideas, when in fact that's one of the hardest parts. Yes, even when it comes to small scale shit it's actually very hard. For every soccer mom that blogs for 2 hours per day, there are 10.000 soccer moms that failed. You don't hear about them.

The blackpill is this:
- people shit on idea guys cause they know execution is very important
- people shit on execution guys without ideas because intuitively they know it's hard as fuck to find a good idea, stick to it, and turn it into money

In order to make it you need both. You can learn execution, cause that comes with experience, but you can't learn opportunities. That's why you'll never receive a serious answer in this thread.

You should pirate various courses and books on how to make money online. This way you'll get a general framework of how online biz works, how soccer moms with blogs truly make money and so on. Then maybe you'll find an idea nad maybe you'll try it and maybe it'll work. Good luck
