  @HappyMotorhead I remember seeing those Supra's everywhere on Craigslist for around $1,500 in running condition. Albeit it was around 20 years ago, lol.. Look up what they cost now.. I would still take the Chevelle, But I would NOT turn down the Supra if given the chance.

  I was 26 and I thought I was a failure. I’d just shut down a funeral company. Before that, we were a different funeral company lol. Before that, I ran sales for a parking app. Before that, I was 22, living in Austin, renting a house on Craigslist that became another company’s headquarters because someone at that company told me to “go launch the city.” And so it was 4-5 years of not having any amount of cohesion/synergy/insert_boringcorporatewordhere. So I flew to Guatemala by myself and read a self-help book my aunt had given me. The book told me to write down what mattered to me. I wrote: making people happier. Not ending world hunger. Not curing disease. Not having "impact" Just happier. Which was nice but also useless. The book then had me map out what kind of career could allow me to run the fruits of my labor through this filter of: does this make someone happier. The content world seemed like a good starter direction. Make people laugh. Make them think. Maybe make them less bored. Then I started looking for something that helped people level up. Something that made people smarter, figuring that smarter would probably make happier moreso than something like porn, though maybe I was/am wrong. So I found a YouTube channel in LA that prided itself on making smart + funny content for millennial men. It was a B-minus business model. But I loved every second of it. And the team was exceptional. And then another friend asked if I could help him hire a head of marketing. I’d never recruited anyone, but: would helping someone get a better job make them happier? Obviously yes. So I stole an engagement letter from a friend who ran a recruiting firm, pretended I did this all the time, and three months later placed someone and got paid $30,000. Again, the filter held. Not because I had found my calling while sitting on a mountain in Guatemala but because the next thing in front of me fit the thing I had written down. Shortly after, I started taking on clients who wanted help with marketing. This wasn't fun, but I needed an income and didn’t want another boss, and, soon after our clients started asking if they could hire our international talent directly. Woah. This recruiting thing again. This thing I very much liked and was weirdly good at. Now, that’s Scale Army. It wasn’t happiness + content + leveling up + jobs magically becoming one company. It was more like: I wrote down one vague thing I cared about, and then I kept saying yes to the next thing that seemed to pass. Figure out a thing you care about. Make that your filter. Say no to everything that doesn't make the cut.

  @FrenlyOfficer @revenant_MMXX Also if you have a useful ability in just about anything you can just post on craigslist or marketplace that you are looking to trade work for work. I will happily fix a guys car if he uses his 52" standing mower to knock out my yard so i dont gotta push

  @PokeCardsDaily Yes but a this has always been a problem with high value items on marketplace/Craigslist. Should never have been trying to move a black label on marketplace especially in person. And if you think thats the only way you can get a sale done, do it INSIDE a police station or no deal

  Roofer: SEO doesn't work. Me: Looks at their website. The design structure looks like a 2012 Craigslist ad, the "Call Now" button is broken on mobile, and the content is just a wall of generic text copied from somewhere, idk

  @TeamRetrogue @gamestop I've done a charge back on gamestop for selling me a broken disc and refusing to refund it. They have some of the worst customer service, and worse employees working there. Craigslist is more reliable than @gamestop these days. That's not even a joke.

  @kakashiii111 Funny how watching all these people talk about shortages and high prices- and the work of @GamersNexus, no hate just referencing- say the memory issue. Maybe check out the Craigslist and FB marketplace ads by me- 4090s, 5090s, 32 to 128g ram builds cant bring $1600-1800....

  @35yearoldfriend If you want to talk to me about how to start a successful handyman business with no skills I have been a self employed gig worker since I started posting ads on craigslist 22 years ago saying I would come chop down trees and labor for $8 an hour. By the end of year I charged $25

  @jjohnpotter Did you put it on craigslist? List it for $20 and say, best deal in town, cost $xx,xxx new. People can't pass up a good deal. If it's free they think something is wrong, if they pay, it's a way to earn money. The Brain is broken this way.

  @ModeledBehavior I stopped using FB Marketplace and went back to using Craigslist. I have had too many experiences with rude people on FB Marketplace, and that hasn't been an issue (mostly) on Craigslist.

  Who in the world owns Craigslist? I just heard that Tesla had bought it out, is that true? We listed Belgian Mallinois puppies on there for sale and they keep taking the ad down, saying “some posters objected to my ads”. There are some petty, immature jackasses out there including Craigslist! That’s my rant for the week!

  It’s really simple to solve the watch party tot issue @TheGarden has. All you have to do is make the tkts non-transferable, that way resellers have no incentive to buy them up and resell on craigslist, eBay & Eventbrite etc. I’ll take 6 tkts to game 3 for solving this for you

  I miss the 1999 Toyota Corolla that I bought off Craigslist for $1500 (haggled down $300 bc two door handles were broken off) and drove for seven years then sold to a dealership who were angry that I wasted their time to assess and said they were surprised it made the drive over

  Last time a newspaper classified ad was of use to me was in 2007, when an ad in a physical copy of the Tacoma Tribune got me a new apartment. After that, Craigslist online was the go to, especially in emergency situations. Too bad they had to shut down the horny part of the site.

  @Papanicolaou_r3 Lewd models are fine and are encouraged. The issue is turning the scene into another craiglist. Lewd Models are aren't. Most of us don't want IRL nudes. There are other websites for that.

  A young Swedish woman, who described herself as having extraordinary beauty and extremely seductive charms posted an anonymous ad on Craigslist stating that she was looking for a wealthy man to marry with an annual income of over $500,000, plus several conditions. She received a response from a commenter, as follows: - My dear beautiful lady... I read your post with interest, and I think many beautiful girls have questions similar to yours. Allow me to analyze your questions as a professional investor. My total annual income is over $500,000, which perfectly matches your requirements. From my perspective as a businessman, it would be a bad decision to marry you. Here's my short answer, and let me explain why: "Regardless of the details, what you're doing now is a pure transaction. An exchange of your "beauty" for "my money." Person A has the beauty, and Person B will pay money for that beauty. A perfectly fair and straightforward transaction. However, there's a fatal problem here: your beauty will inevitably diminish over the years, while my money isn't expected to diminish without a strong reason. The truth is, my income will likely increase from year to year, while you won't be any more beautiful in a few years. So, from an economic perspective, I represent an "asset" whose value increases over time, while you represent a "consumer" asset whose value decreases. If your beauty is all you own, things will get worse because you won't be a normal consumer product, but rather a product with a very high depreciation rate that will completely expire within 10 years.

  @desert_starr_57 It's the same with Offerup, Letgo, and craigslist. Though despite the same issues, I did get decent results from Letgo up until Offerup bought them out and tanked the platform I stated right in my posts "Stupid Questions and lowball offers will be ignored and users blocked."

  @AllHailTzeentch @StefanMolyneux My car was broken into, my wallet and music gear was stolen, and listed on craigslist and the seller included his address (across the street from me), and I had two gas station videos of him using my credit card --- the cops said THEY WILL NOT FOLLOW UP.
