Don't waste another summer being broke
I'm typing this from my balcony overlooking the Gulch.
It's 63 degrees, sunny, and I'm watching people walk their overpriced dogs while sipping on my $15 smoothie from E+Rose.
Yes, FIFTEEN dollars. Before tip.
To be fair, I added an immunity shot.
And yes, the immunity shot does in fact cure cancer.
Pretty cool, right?
Anyway, summer is a couple months away and we both know what that means...
You're going to see your friends posting their vacation pics while you're stuck working that job you hate just to pay for your overpriced apartment.
Same shit, different year.
Unless, of course, you do something about it now.
Here are the three skills you need to learn TODAY if you want to have actual money to spend this summer:
TikTok Shop: The platform is printing money right now. People are making $5k-10k per month just by becoming affiliates for products.
No inventory. No startup costs. Just posting videos of products and getting a commission when people buy.
It's literally free money if you're willing to learn the platform. You only need your phone and an internet connection to get started.
Sales: Every business needs people who can close deals.
And guess what? Most people are terrified of sales calls.
If you can get over your fear of rejection, you could easily make $10k/month closing deals for companies who need help.
The best part? You can learn the basics in a weekend.
Copywriting: This is what's paying for my lifestyle right now.
I'm sitting in my apartment in the Gulch, writing emails, and making more money than all my friends with "real jobs."
I spent yesterday at Pure Sauna Studio, sweating out toxins for $45 a session, then had dinner at Ladybird Taco where I spent $26 on two tacos and a drink.
Ridiculous? Yes.
But I can afford it because I learned how to write words that make people buy shit.
You don't need a degree. You don't need connections. You don't need startup capital.
You just need to learn how to write in a way that makes people take action.
Look, I'm not telling you this to brag...
I'm telling you this because if you start learning one of these skills TODAY, you could easily be making your first few thousand dollars by the time summer arrives.
And instead of watching your friends have fun on Instagram while you're eating ramen, you could be the one posting those boat pics.
The choice is yours.
But summer is coming whether you're ready for it or not.

To your first summer that doesn't suck,
Grant
P.S. The clock is literally ticking. We're already in March. You have maybe 8-10 weeks before summer. That's enough time to learn the basics of any of these skills and start making money. But only if you start now.
