How can I do something similar? I'm young and in college and have no fucking idea of what to do with my life other than Crypto. I just want an idea, something to wake up for in the morning.

I just remembered. My uncle has been in the clothing business for more than a decade now. He travels to Turkey and China all the time, buys inventory and then sells it to large retailers in the Middle East. He has asked me to come and travel with him many times, but I have declined due to school. Anyhow, maybe I should do something like this? He has told me that he would like to expand into the European market, maybe Ebay/Alibaba could be a way?

Could do please explain drop shipping a bit more? Do I as a retailer advertise a product on my own site/Ebay. Then the costumer orders that, and I place an order on Aliexpress with the costumers delivery address? Why wouldn't the costumer just cut me (the middleman) and go straight to Aliexpress?

>> No.8882100

>>8882014
people are lazy and aliexpress has so much inventory it's a pain to search. If you dropship from a shopify store no need to hold the product or place orders. if you sell on ebay you have to perform the ordering yourself but still don't have to hold inventory.

Do a getting started in crypto section and then put the affiliate links for all the exchange that have affiliate links, coinbase/cex/etc. Probably do a twitter/socialmedia and automate posting when you add an article. Also try to collect emails for a list maybe and send ppl an email weekly with the top articles.
