Do you think you could manage a living by finding random jobs off craigslist?
Im starting to think i might to do this, just apple to all kinds of jobs that seem reasonable and not shitty, and see if i can rake in some loot and opportunity that way.

No I don't think I could. It's decent for one time jobs in my area or your standard 10-15 dollar per hour work, but I can't live on that.

Nope. I see no point in moving from one, dead-end, low paying job to another.

A lot of my buddies by cars off craigslist that will have a problem or two that the owner can't fix/doesn't know what wrong...fix em then sell them.
Buying and flipping shit is easy.Just gotta know what ur doing/what to look for.

It depends where you live. I've gotten several really good jobs and gigs through CL before. One was just a temp job paying 15/hour. One was a starting position for a high end reputable tech company where I have been for almost a year now, and it's pretty much a career. So yeah there's not just dead end jobs available, although there's plenty. You just have to wade through a lot of shit. There are opportunities. And lots of scams.
