>Not counting my expenses
About how much do you make after expenses? Also how about an estimated yearly profit number?

My dad has been recommending for a while that I try gathering/cutting/selling firewood to make some money.

Also I don't mean to "ree" you too much but I don't think you really qualify as a NEET if you have any success at being self-employed.

I don't have any sucess at being self employed. I don't do this all year, just s couple of weeks. After all the expenses, (gas, food, internet, rent, loans) I don't have much left over at the end of the month. As far as profit from this one thing, I might put away 500 a month. So about 1500-2000 dollars yearly, since I only do it for a few weeks. I'm working with one other person and we split everything.
If you are lucky to use the right equipment, splitting and selling wood isn't that hard. I mean the work can be rough if you're a pussy, but its not all bad.

Sounds like a good gig really.

To me the thought of being a wageslave spending the rest of my life working a job I hate seems like a fate worth than death, but my parents have been bothering me more and more about being a NEET. I'd love to be able to make a little money with self-employment just to cover my share of food and such and make my parents happier without having to become a wageslave then end up an hero.

I've tried going to thrift stores, antique stores, flea markets, etc. and buying/fixing/selling things but after ~7 years of doing this I haven't figured out how to make it profitable. Once in a while I can make a profit on something but when fuel costs are factored in from all the times I don't find anything it's just an overall loss of money.

I also do the fixing and reselling thing. Craig's list always has shit people are either giving away or selling cheap/trading. I've never turned down free electronics period
I have quite a few piles of shit like old crt monitors, old Xbox 360s, laptops and pcs laying around. You would be surprised how many people would buy a new laptop if the track pad or keyboard messes up. The laptop I use now is one that had a really bad keyboard. I got it for free and I just disconnected the board and pad and connected it to a wireless keyboard.
Another thing I do this time of year is process game for city guys that like to kill things but don't like getting dirty. I've charged people 10 bucks to skin a rabbit or pluck a bird. And if someone wants a deer or a hog skinned and butchered, ill make a deal with them that usually gets me some meat on top of cash.
You really just have to be open to trying shit. If you've got half a brain you can get along OK.

Theres nothing worse than punching s clock for someone else. It's messed up. I see it all the time. When I have time to kill (which is alot) I'll sit at the local Walmart and use the public WiFi to download anime and movies. I look around there and the employees are miserable. I've seen guys working 40+ hours week and they're still so broke they're wearing shoes that are falling apart. Poor shits live off of McDonalds and subway because they don't have time to cook a meal or they're so tired from work that they can't. These people are not living a good life. I know, I've been there.

NEET means NOT EMPLOYED you redditor faglord

I really have to do disagree here. I think people collecting autismbux are just a vocal minority and the large majority of NEETs are just supported by parents or other family, at least n places like the US where it's difficult to get any sort of disability bux unless you were diagnosed as a child or actually had a job before you got disabled.

Where do you get the timber from?

>>24446224
seems like good money holy shit

I do some odd jobs at my uncle's place.
He owns some gym with a cafe and I just go around there repairing shit for a handful of cash.
Make roughly 50 euros a month, often less when there's nothing to do.
It's a nice little extra but a very unreliable source of income.
I've been saving these extras up a bit so hopefully I can build a new shitty computer that's slightly better than my 7 year old laptop.

I do dump runs for people because I have a truck/trailer. I can get from $60-$250 a run depending if I need a trailer. Gas is like $20 at most, dump fee is $10, rest is profit. I'd only charge $60 if it was like 15min or less of actual loading time and was within 20min of the dump.

I also build patios/walkways and flowerbeds for people (like complete reshaping, putting in proper plants that bloom throughout the year and promote good ph levels in the soil, etc). Last year I made like $8000 off one job, and did about 6 or 7.
