What do you mean by drop shipping? Is this some kind of multi-level marketing thing?

I've found that it's worthwhile to accumulate independent revenue streams. I might come up with an idea that will make me $20 a month, and take me an hour once a month, or 5 minutes 12 times a month, but that's still making $20 an hour. Then just start accumulating those hours. over time it can build up into a decent side business, or full-time business.

I pull in a few thousand a year doing mostly dye-sublimation. I was doing ceramics, but you can't print your own designs as easily with ceramics. It can be done, but none of my designs sell enough to be practical to do that way. I still "do" ceramics, my designs are just not fired on in a kiln. I have to buy special coated ceramics, then I can print off a design for one unique item, or a small order of custom items. Dye-sub is also photo-quality, ceramic transfers are silkscreen, so kind of low-res, but they last forever, plastic coatings get scratched and/or fade.

dropshipping is setting up an ecommerce website and selling products through a wholesaler.  it takes you out of the shipping and handling procedures. 

some broke jokes put a product on ebay and mail it to em from amazon which i find fucking hilarious

you're right about that last part. it has nothing to do with taking. it's given. that's my point. but i don't want anything to give me what i don't need. and i'd still wager that we're all dependant on somebody. you don't just forage through the world like Zeus until you've become you're own God. not unless you're willing to surrender the world, which... hint: they aren't. no one is.

Your typing skills are horrible. It makes it really hard to understand how you're trying to justify the way you're living.

Are you saying you don't want people to give you anything you don't need? What about the shelter, food, electricity, and whatever else your parents give you? You don't need that stuff from them.

And I don't believe that you don't want to have a girlfriend or some kind of relationship with a girl. That is what people who can't get girls say.

While I don't understand it... so long as you're "happy" and not hurting anyone else, do your thing. 

I hope, though, that you do find something to be passionate about if you haven't already. That's why people get jobs and that's where real fulfillment comes from. Be it family, hobbies, intellectual pursuits, or, if they're lucky, the job itself.


Granted alot of people do work, support themselves financially, have families, and exist just because they are expected to. Because they think that that's how to live. And I find that really sad.
