Reselling 2019 → 2023

When I was 16, I memorized my dad's credit card number and used it to buy a Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low Mocha for $180. I shortly resold them for $900 and used the profit to buy and resell limited items like sneakers, apparel, electronics, event tickets, NFTs, and more. Eventually grew it into a $200k revenue business in 2 years.
