The "Passive Income" trap ate a generation of entrepreneurs

I had coffee last year with a guy - I won't use his real name - who told me he was "building a business." I asked what it did. Dropshipping jade face rollers. I made him say it twice. Jade face rollers. He'd found them on Alibaba for $1.20

@Daojoan They fail 5 to 10 times and then start blaming it on women, migrants or everybody else.

We all had this already once in the 90s withe everyone and his uncle having online stores. But it was a lot more work back then...

At least that guy is only 800$ down. This can be a lot more expensive.
