A 40-year-old just quit his 18-year career in insurance after his Amazon side hustle brought in over $40,000 in sales in 4 months

, where some members have sold over $400,000 worth of goods since May, when the group was founded. According to records from 20 different individual members' Amazon seller accounts, sales in the group have ranged from about $29,000 to $488,000. The group is run on Discord and costs members $50 per month, a fee that includes a robust training course and advice for how to master arbitraging on Amazon.

"I took a look at this and said, 'all right, do I stay in a job that is stable, pays me well, [and is] a great company to work for? Or do I try a new venture and something that honestly excites me?" the Southern US resident said. "It's kind of betting on myself that I can make this work."Like many members of Arbitrage Ops, joining the group was the former insurance underwriter's first exposure to arbitraging.

"That's when it became clear to me that it was quickly becoming something that I needed to change and choose one thing or the other," the reseller said.

Well the article is behind a paywall so I can’t read it. But.... $40k in 4 months is $120k a year in SALES. Not profit. So if my man thinks he can retire in less than $100k a year. God bless

Should indicate in title this is behind a paywall.
