Transcript

Testing TikTok side hustles. You don't have to. I keep seeing in high school is making over 10k a month from washing cars. So I'm gonna try it. First out of a car wash. I'm gonna get in a vacuum and you can get these for $80. Then I customized a bunch of business cards and picked them up at Staples. 500 of these for $25. Then I went through a busy parking lot and spent a couple hours putting business cards on people's cars. I really hope no one gets offended by these business cards cuz on them I'm basically saying if I put this on your car it's because I think it needs a washing. But no judgement, I will wash the shit out of your car. Oswald Cleaning Services. Follow me and for calls I'm just gonna practice on my own car cuz I don't want to screw up someone else's. The first car took a good amount of time because I didn't really know what I was doing, but I still got paid $75 for interior and exterior. Then I did this car, it only took me about 45 minutes and I got paid $75. This guy only wanted exterior, so he paid me $50, but his car was pretty messy so it took me about 45 minutes. All in all, I washed three cars and made $200. This is a great side hustle, but if you want to see me try an online side hustle, follow for part 4: drop servicing.
