Ep 239 | The Surprising Math Behind a $500/Month Etsy Shop – with Cody Berman
How to Sell Your Stuff on EtsyShow Notes
Could an Etsy shop earning $200–$1,000 per month be worth more than you realize? In this episode, Cody and I discuss the surprising power of passive income, investing, and the role Etsy can play in building long-term wealth. Drawing from his FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) background and his new book Retire by 30, Cody explains why you don't need a six-figure Etsy shop to change your financial future—and how even modest monthly profits can create meaningful freedom over time. **"How to Sell Your Stuff on Etsy" is not affiliated with or endorsed by Etsy.com
