Default Re: YOUR sage advice would be apprciated by these four people.

No advice, but ya got me thinking...

What I like about ebay is the small entry to learning business.

Buy right. Sell right. You can learn abritrage by finding an item on ebay and selling on amazon (or even ebay itself by marketing better).

When my kid get of age (6) I will be getting him on ebay to start VERY small and learn to play the gaps.

I can think of no lower real world, risk little way.

Get a book on your bookshelf. Research the market value, find the selling venue (hmm, yahoo? Ebay? Amazon?), write copy, etc...

Then do it again this time something you buy....

You will lost little and learn much, discipline, and pricing and timing and psychology...

I am not a ebay raving fan, but I do love low risk tools.

It is the EXACT same concept I do when I buy businesses and sell them. In fact, when I start screwing up I go back to ebay and play the book game I mentioned above.

However, that is what works for me, and it truth it is all I can advise. Find my twin and it will work for him too.
