6. I sold stuff. I got rid of a lot of stuff. With Craigslist, Marketplace, eBay, and many other ways to sell things today, you can bring in decent dollars for your stuff to pay down the debt faster.

@Uncommonsince76 Just be cause there is no videos, does not mean it does not happen. I can remember 2 white men murdering two black me, dismembering them and dumping their bodies. All over some craigslist sale of electronics. Crime is a individual thing, not a race issue.

Startup myth that's costing you months: 'You need a technical co-founder to build anything" The reality: - @stripe was built by 2 non-technical founders - @PlentyOfFish was built by 1 guy using basic tools - Craigslist looks like it was built in 1995 and makes millions Your MVP doesn't need: ❌ Perfect code architecture ❌ Scalable infrastructure ❌ Technical co-founder ❌ Computer science degree Your MVP needs: ✅ To solve one problem well ✅ Real users willing to pay ✅ Fast iteration based on feedback ✅ Someone who ships, not someone who plans Stop using "I need a technical co-founder" as an excuse not to start.

I made my first million on a $95, 14-inch Dell laptop with three missing keys—bought off Craigslist. It was so slow, I’d launch Photoshop, grab a coffee, and it’d still be loading by the time I got back. Trust me, you've got everything you need to do it. Just let go of the bullhsit story holding you back. - Alen

@SaveZcash Thanks, very appreciated, but credit goes to Jim Buckmaster, the craigslist CEO since 2000. (I'm a terrible manager but a great customer service rep, so I stepped into the full-time CSR job)

@munawwarfiroz They don't, it's awful. You discover on facebook marketplace or craigslist, you negotiate/reserve via email or terrible apps, you pay using another app

@WarMonitors FWIW: vintage typewriters are super easy to find and usually super cheap at garage sales, ebay, marketplace, Craigslist etc. Oh, and you can quickly restore old ribbons by just rubbing them down with ink.

@not__vee I remember when they shut down the Craigslist dark channels to combat human trafficking. Police hated it bc that made it harder to investigate crimes. Independents hated it bc it made screening clients riskier. It hurt far more than it helped.

Investors scoffed. “People don’t even trust each other on Craigslist — why would this work?” But Chesky understood: this wasn’t a technology problem. It was a TRUST PROBLEM.

@official_throne That's an XBox360 (pro model) with the E74 error code (red ring of death). When I was young, I'd buy these on Craigslist for almost nothing. Fix them, then resell them.

@CyberMikeOG That's your fault. Things with wheels are the worst investment in the world and you should assume they are worth nothing when you buy them. Buy a 2004 Corolla off Craigslist and you won't have this problem.

After getting upsold by fhvkers on canal for a luggage to move with I go on Craigslist and find one for my $20 range. I pick it up in less than an hour from emailing. On 171 Chrystie St. rich as heck building some bald old lady comes to hand it off. I go to Whole Foods. 17 minutes later I pass back the building again the old woman is still down there visible through the window still talking to the doorman. Sweet interaction brought from foul greedy Canal vendors.

@hpluvshaft I feel like the only reason this is a past tense sentence is because they took that part of Craigslist down

@_mimiyori bummer. check FB marketplace or craigslist (or alternatives in your country) for used monitors. people sell decent work monitors for super cheap. if you can get one with a VESA mount that clips to your desk or wall, even better. that way your kitties can't knock it down lol

@storvensen @SCHIZO_FREQ That's the Buy Here Pay Here model, they're even scummier than normal car dealerships. No reason to go BHPH unless your credit is terrible and you can't get a beater from Craigslist/FB.

@albert9x19 Craigslist. It was $450 per mo and the other tenant there was a Ukrainian dude. They had trouble finding a second tenant because they hated blacks and were so pleased when I responded

@WishIwasSpock I missed out on a complete set of all years for sale on Craigslist because I was working too much to drive 3 hours. It was in library boxes and was near pristine. Something like 140+ issues, for $200. I asked him to mail it to me and he never responded. My grandma subbed for yrs

@SCHIZO_FREQ Id be careful with the marketplace and craigslist. People are just trying to get rid of the trash and do absolutely no maintenance before selling. Burned through 3 cars in 7 years by no fault of my own. Last car was 20 years old from a dealer. Absolutely no issues last 2 years

@DeDunkingPast So they have a problem with you being an electrician, and yet EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM would hire bubba off Craigslist to save money! But the second you do something they disagree with, NOW your all of a sudden the anti christ for not having a stamp on a piece of paper!

@ajwmwrb @GlobeEyeNews If the chickens are alive, rehome them through local farms, animal shelters, or online marketplaces like Craigslist. If they're meat, donate to food banks, sell at markets, or compost ethically. Check local laws to avoid issues—after all, chats can be court evidence!
