Open a Airbnb business. We can try. First step, try to find a homeowner, rent the apartment, and put it on Airbnb. After a few tries of contacting some of them, we got a no, no, no, no, no, a yes, that turned into a no. And after a few tries, we finally got our first yes. We didn't lose time, we took a look at the property, started to see what we could do, this, what type of renovation, what furniture we have to buy, and we started the renovations. Then it was time to buy the furniture. It was way harder than I expected. I had to buy a TV, a sofa, a bed, some bed stuff, change a door, also buy some curtains, paint the wall, repaint it again, and re-repaint it again. When painting, multiple layers are required. This is the kind of stuff that I didn't know before this video. So, yeah, we learned some stuff. At least now I know how to do this kind of stuff when I will move out later. A few weeks later, when it was done, we put the announce on Airbnb and booking. The first day, boom, we started, we got our first booking. I went all the way there to give the keys, had to ask a friend to clean after, and after a few modifications, I was able to automate the whole process. Someone is paid each time to give the keys, someone is paid each time to clean, and all I had to do was to change the prices time to time and answer to people on the reservation platform. When we started to get more and more bookings, we were totally full month in advance, so we had to do a lot of planning to be able to satisfy everyone and be effective with the cleaning and giving the keys stuff. It was a little bit scary to see all of these people booking this apartment, but I had a challenge and I wanted to complete it. To outsourcing a little bit and delegating some of the work to some people for the cleaning, giving key, and buying the utilities when needed was a little bit scary, because I like to do everything myself, but it worked kind of well. We didn't have to do any micromanaging, everyone was working great, and by doing this, I was able to do some other stuff, because yes, I'm still a student, I'm still someone who works part-time, so fitting all of this in my calendar was hard, but not impossible. So now let's get into the numbers. For our first month, so 28 days on Airbnb, we was able to make 1,500 euro. Out of it, let's take out 500 for the rent, 150 for the cleaning fee, and 40 euro for the utility, the toilet paper, shampoo, and this kind of stuff. And this give us a profit of 810 euro. On this 810 euro, that I had a nice deal with the homeowner, so I had to split profit, and their total renovation cost costed me 1,500 euro. So is it worth it? Yes, if you do it the right way. And also please, this video taking a lot of time to do sometimes, a few months actually, so I would really appreciate if you could take two seconds just to like the video, follow me. Okay, so now that you tried out making out money with 50 dollar and trying an Airbnb business, tell me what idea should I do next?
