There are a lot of "preppers" who think the"eminent" these days and so for them they store alcohol as a means of bartering instead of money and fuel usage as well as medical sanitizer. So yes, these guys are wise and definitely good for selling in this respect other than just "consumption". In addendum to this you might want to sell emergency pepper supplies...huge sales there!
I sell fire alarm parts for commercial and industrial buildings. Buildings will always need parts to keep the fire alarm up to date in their buildings, or else they will be shutdown by the fire marshal.
EXCELLENT content!!! On point!!!!!💥 I do not see any other reseller speaking about this topic. They keep making monotonous videos that are sooooo 2019. Totally not in reality. But YOU ARE!!!!💥
Thanks for the insight Chris! Btw 2 yrs btwn kids …. My sister timed it perfectly, 2 girls, able to use same clothes for maternity, kids, toys, etc… also thinking of the future to and from school for ex. Keeping them close helps out in so many ways. It’s never the right time for 1, by 2 think strategically:)
We raised five kids. I definitely think that the very best spacing is two years or less. Definitely not more than 2 1/2 years apart. When kids are four or five years apart, they will not be playmates, which will make your job much harder. An only child will constantly put pressure on parents to play with them and will probably be more self-centered. Kids five years apart are really two only children as they live in different worlds. We homeschooled our kids. They're all 2 1/2 years apart. I might have had them closer if I had it to do over again. Yes, they are lots of work but the reward of keeping them close to you through homeschooling is that your kids will be more likely to adopt your values. They won't be raised by their peers. As a result, they're much less likely to use bad language, experiment with drugs and sex, become addicted to pornography, etc., etc., etc. Although we aren't perfect parents, our kids have integrity and are the greatest joy in our lives. I realize that homeschooling isn't for everyone but public schools have become unacceptable in this "woke" culture. For high school, we used a public charter school which provided all materials and online classes. You don't have to be a genius to homeschool.
Chris, my kids are adults now and are great people so I kind of consider myself very experienced! 🤣 I think the best amount of years between children is 3. The benefits are at least one is potty trained, 3 year olds can express themselves, they can eat on their own as long as an adult is with them, & 3 is a good age for preschool just because they can tell you what’s going on when you’re not there. Also, usually kids 3 years apart become good friends, However, I would say the MOST important reason is that you can do things as a family that everyone enjoys. Mine were 4.5 years apart and we had to let the kids take turns picking what they wanted to do on family night. ALSO, children born much closer together tend to compete with each other on every level. My girls are good friends now but that happened when they were pretty much adults. I tried to have mine 3 years apart but had a miscarriage. Sometimes life doesn’t work out how you want (as you well know) but it turned out ok. Less chaotic & for me that was good. I tend to lose focus in chaos. Best of luck! Great channel!
My two girls have that age gap and I agree with you. It was much easier because the eldest can help a little bit with the baby (now toddler) and do lot of things alone.
I’m one of 9 and we all did everything together. We didn’t get a choice lol. I’m super close with my siblings and just lost my big sister at the beginning of covid19 and she and I were 23 months apart and we were close as can be both Aquarius and we balanced one another. I miss her so much but I wouldn’t change knowing her bc she made me who I am today she kept me safe and taught me everything. We are all 2 years apart tops.
Everyone keeps saying the economy is bad….based on my observations, it is doing just fine. People in my area (DC metro area - Virginia) are spending money at Target, Costco, Lowes, Home Depot, the outlet mall, restaurants are doing good business, always a line of cars at the car wash, Starbucks and Chick Fil A…..
People are crying wolf. There is no question the price of gas is hurting but I think people are spending money like crazy. Tourist spots in US are super busy because even with high prices it is cheaper to drive than fly on a family vacation.
Because they are charging it to credit cards. Debt is through the roof for most families and individuals in the US, if reports are correct. We haven’t gotten to the worst part yet, but it’s coming.
I'm a part time everything seller with $5k-6k gross sales per month. I think niche selling is not as safe in a slowdown as a generalist because a generalist doesn't have to worry about particular product demand going down or changing.
To have another child and when is such a brave journey these days, I commend parents, the cost and challenges are great. Such a personal decision. I have 2. Grown. 3 years apart. I still don’t feel like I give them enough but not once ever regretted it. I also grow plants. Much easier. Kids love gardens and mud! Enjoy the moments, cherish, relish, they go fast.
Great video. What approach is the best to buy those products for reselling? Wholesalers often have minimum order amounts which sometimes exceed my investment possibilities. I'm based in Germany btw. Thx for any help🙌
We have 8 kids, 1 to 2 wasn’t bad, ruff spot for us was 3 to 4! After that it was all pretty much a cake walk…until we had 5 teens at once. Now that was complete hormonal craziness🤪🤣
Now that you have the processes down next baby is easier. Grew up with a family that has 10 kids, the mom swore by 2 years apart and followed that with almost every pregnancy.
I used to sell toilet paper like crazy back in my high school yrs I’d buy in bulk and sell locally $15-$20 profit per box until people started pricing my prices and I could no longer make profit I was priced out so had to focus on other thing to sell
OMG - Toilet Paper? I went GoodWill and they had rolls for sale at $2.40 per roll. It wasn't even the Charmin. Never thought to look it up to sell it online though ❤❤❤
The extent if my news is "Alexis, tell me the news." It's a 5 min briefing from WSJ of the important items like money, business trends, major country events. I'm curious what news options others like.
Sales are down on eBay because it’s eBay.. people on Amazon have been having 4th quarter like sales ( it’s been insane) I do both.. Recession doesn’t hit main street America until they are out of a job and the compounding effect of that hits home..
Just subscribed but I’m curious if this can work for small sellers? I’m trying to grow as a seller but I can’t see how buying and selling things like TP would work with eBay fees/shipping costs? Am I missing something? Anyway great content.
We are in a recession and partly into a depression. Don't wait for the propaganda to tell you; look around. Stock up on food, water, heat, medicine and whatever one needs to survive what IS coming. Good luck.
@@brettlott570 he’s trolling. Things are ok. Recession means not doing things due to lack of funds yet we see many going to stores, concerts, games, paid events, traveling, businesses hiring, etc. only thing is real is inflation but that’s global issue not only US.
@@highaltitude787 our country is in the negative numbers for the last 2 quarters. Serious economists have changed from transitory inflation to recession. I would suggest a broader look at the information- even the IMF has issued warnings.
What a great video. Wish I could give you advice when to have another baby. You'll figure it out. eBay should of hired you, instead of banning you. Their decisions have always been off.
I wouldn't sell video games or movies If I were you. As someone who spends on average $5,000 a year on games and $700 a year on movies, the industry is headed towards digitalization. It's been 5 years since I brought a physical game or movie. There is a reason why AMC and Gamestop are failing. Home renovation is also another bad category to get into especially in an environment of higher interest rates. A lot of people use refi's to remodel their homes and when the FED is on tightening campaign liquidity dries up and people stop refinancing their homes, this is the first category to suffer during a recession.
From my experience, reading the headlines and just the very first bit of an article is worse then not reading the news at all. The headlines are made to sell and push a bias. Often, the article gives info that actually contradicts the headline. I agree with not spending too much time on news. If the topic is important, give it a bit of time, though.
Baby number 2 takes 20% less time than the first baby. Got to take into account muscle memory and less decision fatigue. Wait 2 years to get pregnant. It’s much easier for a 3 year old to Understand and take ownership of their new baby.
After you have the first two, the next ones can be closer together. Those first two need to have a really close bond and rely on each other because their always going to be the ones that are looked up to by the younger kids - even as adults!
i think this is an okay video , only because you should let new sellers on ebay this wont work for them . Fact ; if other Ebay sellers are selling the same item their same item even if cheaper , will never see most buyers .I still subscribed . Show newbys best items
Why every time I try to sell clothes that I paid for out the store they removed it im so done with ebay the same product I see people list and nothing happen
I was told once that having 2 kids isn’t twice as hard, it’s 10 times as hard. Also, when I asked my child if they wanted a sibling, they said “No. Never!” 😂
Not my daughter she always wanted a sibling. Today she has 3 stopping and they are all 5 yrs apart and get along great. Thankfully not like my siblings and I🤣🤣😂😂❤️🙏🙏🙏Enjoy them while they are small for they grow so fast
I know I'm two months late from the release of this video but when you're talking about cosmetics...it's interesting that historically make-up has been something people spend money on more often during every recession. Investors even have a term called the "lipstick index." The only time this phenomenon wasn't observed was during the COVID "crash," because people were wearing masks.
@@daniellee9763 I saved mine I don’t get peoples spending but then again I wouldn’t be good at this if i wasn’t thrifty lol. I find it absurd how much we all care about looks. It’s a shame. Yes look nice but I’m all about saving money while doing so and only ever buy nice stuff second hand anymore.
Just had to laugh when you said people are looking for free activities like camping bc camping is super expensive. Maybe they are buying camping stuff more for survival when they don't have a place to live anymore.

Tupperware sells well for me, and I find it every weekend at yard sales of estate sales. 1/3 of my last 90 day sales has been Tupperware.
I can definitely see preppers using Tupperware. I just found a banana keeper Friday. It sells for 15 bucks !
