Obviously selling drugs to highschool classmates, prostitution, a pyramid scheme and setting up a casino are the easiest ways to make money. Any others serious/not serious options

Well this is going to be fruitless.

I once spent about $100 on Red Bulls and really shitty vodka and sold small Red Bull Vodka's on a Phish lot for $8 and made like $500. The solo cups were filled with ice. It was such a rip off but people just couldn't get enough.

Which I then spent on tickets and extra-curriculars

Edit- you said not selling drugs to high school kids, Instead sell to Suburban dads who wont rat you out.

Go to Colorado or find someone who lives there, buy or have them buy $150 worth of edibles or 420 vape pens. Spend about $10 on a flat rate box to ship it back.

Sell the edibles or vape pens at a 25% to 50% hell maybe even 75% markup. (not sure about the going rate for edibles or vape pens) Repeat until you have $1600, but then don't stop there because its easy money, unless you are worried about the felony charge.

Buy a $160 metal detector and go walk around the beach at 30A


My cousin does that when they go to Destin. Every morning he wakes up early and goes out and sweeps the beach. I think he has found 3 or 4 wedding rings and a Rolex.

Use the money to buy a used push mower then offer to mow yards in the neighborhood on Saturdays and Sundays. Even doing just 3 yards a day each weekend at $30/yard (these would therefore be small yards) puts him at $1,600 in 9 weeks.

Buy a junk non running car for around $150.00, remove catalytic converter and sell , currently worth $100.00, sell battery for $5.00, sell remainder of car for about $250.00 at current scrap prices. Use profit and initial investment to buy two more junk cars, scrap out in same manner, repeat process until $1,600 is accumulated. I have a family member that has been doing this for 25 years, and currently buys and sells around 1500 cars a year.
