  This is the issue I have with the "just buy physical crowd" Why spend literally thousands of dollars to make your screen look like something you could get for free off Craigslist? I've had an early 2000's Trinitron sitting in my garage the past 10 years for this very reason.

  That Startup (@ThatStartup_) reported 2 minutes ago

  In 2005, Craigslist turned down $10 billion from Rupert Murdoch. No auction. No bidding war. No counter. Just no. Craig Newmark thought selling would betray the people who used the site.

  @TheecomMike Most founders try to solve revenue with more traffic because traffic feels fixable. Meanwhile the real problem is the store converts like a Craigslist ad and the AOV is anorexic. Buying more clicks before fixing RPS is just paying extra to prove your leak is still there.

  @KennethCassel @zanehengsperger The main problem I have with this is the only time I ever need cash is for a sketchy Craigslist purchase of a boat or something

  DAY 6 of coding to make my parents think I have a real job 🚀 target - become a full-stack developer 💸 earned - $0 (a guy on Craigslist offered me a pizza in exchange for "a small website". I said yes immediately.) the Craigslist client wants a full e-commerce website he described it as "something like Amazon but smaller" I described it as "sure no problem" I do not know how to build this I opened ChatGPT and typed "build me an e-commerce website" ChatGPT gave me 400 lines of code I pasted it it didn't work I asked ChatGPT why it doesn't work ChatGPT apologized and gave me 400 different lines of code I am now the middleman between ChatGPT and a pizza mom asked who I'm talking to at 2am. I told her my senior developer. she asked why my senior developer sounds like a robot. I said that's just how senior developers sound. status: in development. hungry for pizza. outsourced. further less 💪

  I want to share a story that makes me look stupid because it is a testament to just how much America is a land of opportunity. Back in 2011 or so I was looking to get out of academia and I saw a job posted on Craigslist. It was a startup that they described as a Groupon-like new business (Google it, Gen Zers). Anyway, I emailed, they got back in touch, we discussed, and it was clear to me that I was not right for the job (see reply below for why, it's actually important). That company was called Applovin, which is now worth $138 billion dollars. Idk what number employee I'd have been--I seem to remember them saying #10, but that could be my mind playing tricks on me. Anyway, this was a craigslist ad and, if I'd been more money motivated, more willing to fake it until I make it, or maybe more confident, oh how comically absurdly repulsively rich I would be. And I ended up having coffee with one of the founders a couple of years later. We discussed what we were up to, and he was not good at all at hiding the contempt, disgust, and pity he had for me now that I was working as a lowly analyst on Wall Street, although he was certainly polite the entire time. But ex-Goldman founder types, well, they can only think in status and specifically the kinds of status games that their narrow little world certifies as valid. The moral of the story is that America has so much ******* opportunities, man, there are so many ways to make money, there are so many small companies that will become massive, and if you are not cynical and have an open mind you will find so many ways to get filthy ******* rich as a result. The best part of this story is I turned down a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity (which, ironically, I've had several of), and I still ended up a multi-millionaire in my 40s with enough cash to never have to work again and able to just do what I want to do. That's how much opportunity there is in America--even the weird autist who turns down a huge opportunity still ends up wealthy. Try doing that in Germany. Or Japan. I ******* love being American man.

  @skillissuesf @dieworkwear Bruv, if you can't find a place to make a sweatshirt for $400 in the US that is the very definition of skill issue. You could probably get people willing to make them by hand with just a Craigslist ad for that kind of money.

  @LibOrNormal Well he needs to expand his skills and get a side job. All of us had to work weekends even if it was mowing a lawn, putting in a fence or fixing a car for extra cash to pay the bills. Plus not to mention selling anything we didn't want on craigslist if we had an extra bill to catch up on. Now for some who don't know, the bar is the best place to find some side work. If you have some side skills. People are always looking for a hand to build something, fix something or even do yard work.

  @spaztron64 Yeah, go to Craigslist if you want to see what most websites looked like in the 2000s. Most websites were just menu boxes on a page. None of this scrolling down forever nonsense.

  @cSchaez I think the issue is that my car genuinely does run fine, but if you look at all the listings around it on autotrader / craigslist a lot of them are actual scams or don't work. So people just understandably avoid the whole category

  @Oroborous2 @BonesawMD First off is that it was very cheap. In USA gas and food as cheap as $100 a week. Overseas travel I budgeted $1k/month Seasonal odd jobs sporadically while saving 80% of pay. Would put up flyers and do handyman fix it work. Would flip things off of Craigslist etc

  @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

  @Shiwon_NZ_Ao @AirbnbHelp @ApartmentsHope You live in a fantasy world, where AirBnB is responsible for anythig. Yes, they like to pretend so into your (customer) face, to justify their 20% cut. Under the fake surface, they are just a pink Craiglist. You issue is with the owner. AirBnB will fine him, keep his money and give you nothing. Many such cases. Research the horrid stories property owners had - not with guest but with ABnB.
