Right now I work in the library of my university and I always come accross books which are donated to the libray which are then given out as ‘freebies’ to library patrons. Well, I started taking these books and selling them on Amazon. In the first week, I sold around 3 books and made around $25.

Now I have a storefront on Amazon and its working out pretty good! Check it out and if you see something you like, buy it and help a young entrepreneur out…

The “green” Painting Company

I was surfing the net the other day and came across this page that talked about “green” or eco-friendly non-toxic paints. The site also talked about all the harm that common latex and indoor paints can cause to the human body.

I have never heared of a “green” painting company before, but I think it there is a nitch market out there for such a service. What do you think?

“The Homemaid Food Delivery Service”

Pretty much everyone in my house can cook. And if you have ever had Dominican food you know that its really good. So my brother came up to me the other day and said, “Gilbert, everyone in the house can cook and has a car. We are thinking about creating a company that cooks and delivers Dominican food to local business, and to pretty much anyone who wants to buy from us.”

With the right clientele, and the right people i think it can be profitable. What do you think?
