    hey stevie i took the custom gshock and evolved on it and ive made about 30k since that video post thank you! now im looking to switch to something else because watches are kind of a pain to sell and ebay has alot of rules and guidelines with it. I need help! you should make a video starting a business with a higher entry $ value and i would watch it 100%, especially a series!

    Interesting idea but I don't think you understand your audience. There is this HUGE hatred of plastic plants and real ones would elevate this idea alot. Real succulents are kind of hardy and with the right prep on the container this would probably still work.

    Right now I have a Lump in my through because I just watched my first video of yours and it was the one where you bought your first Rolex from that Sweet woman who was going through a hard time and she needed to sell the Rolex her Grandfather Gave her, I never expected to hear at the end you giving it back to her along with an additional $500.00. I am sooo touched by your kindness, The tears started flowing. I never watched any other video of yours, so I have no idea what they consist of. But I most certainly will be binge watching from now on. You are a Breath of fresh air and a gift. I can't wait to go on this journey although a little late. Glad to meet you, Stevie.

    The vintage suitcase (which was in good condition) and sought after ad there is getting fewer and from them . People use for decor, props, and storage like jewelry and stack.
    No money or time invested- which you have to account into the math, time is THE one thing people do not calculate in and it'sthe most important factor) HE could have sold it just like it is for same OR more😊

    As prototypes, I think these have some evergreen potential if mass marketed to retail. And it seems it is so easy to craft this idea into a prototype, because the supply and demand is already solved. So this idea is basically taking something already profitable, but mundane, and then trying to take it next level in a way that is aesthetic to look for the buyer that wants more.
    But I agree with other commentators...live succulents are even more interesting and a bigger draw.

      Yes. Years ago I used the same idea but filled the mugs with Christmas sprigs. Also made Teacher Gift ones. They sold really well at a craft fair and a consignment market. I think because they were really pretty but did not cost too much; perfect for a gift for child's teacher.

    Well, once you factor in the time and effort invested, it most likely will not be worth it unless they sell for $100 to $200 and you must upscale the business. It could work for other concepts, but the process would really have to be unique and not easily replicable by anyone who just looks at it and figures it out. That means special tooling and unique skills that you have to develop on your own, and then test it to see if they actually sell or it is just a nice little handcraft that looks cool, but not really saleable
