The proudest moment of my life: Retiring my wife in our 20s.

And despite what most people think…

Anyone can do the same.

Here’s how: Image
First lets be real:

My wife never asked me to retire her, she's not that type.

But I wasn’t going to watch her stress about work while I had freedom from my business.

So I made it my mission to give her the same freedom.

Here's exactly what you need to retire your spouse:
$15K/month in profit from a business that doesn't require their time.

That's it. Not millions, just a consistent monthly income.

And in my opinion, selling on Amazon is the fastest path there.
Step 1: Find a boring product people already buy

Skip the revolutionary ideas. Look for:

• Pet supplies
• Kitchen gadgets
• Home organization

Products doing $200K+/month with sellers under 500 reviews.
Step 2: Make it 10% better

Read the 1-star reviews. They're literally telling you what to fix:

• Better packaging
• Clearer instructions
• Higher quality materials

Don’t reinvent the wheel. Just improve something that already works (business 101).
Step 3: Source it right

Hit up 10-15 suppliers on Alibaba.

If they quote $10, offer $5. Never take the first price.

Get samples and test everything.

Ideally your margins are 40%+ minimum.
Step 4: Launch with professional photos

Your iPhone won't cut it.

Customers can't touch your product. They need:

• Lifestyle shots in use
• Clean white backgrounds
• Infographics showing benefits

This is where most people fail. Don’t overlook this step.
Step 5: Scale to $15K/month profit

The math:

• $40 product
• $16 profit per unit after all costs
• Need 938 units/month
• That's just 31 sales per day

One product and 31 daily sales. That’s all it took
The timeline:

Month 1-3: Learning and failing (I lost $10K here)

Month 4-6: First profitable product

Month 7-12: Scale to $10K+ profit

Month 13+: True passive income

Now it takes me 5-10 hours per week total
I started as a normal guy.

No special advantages, I was just willing to fail until I figured it out.

You have to be willing to bet on yourself first.

I met my wife when I was making $150K/year.

Within 3 years, I 12x'd my income.

Here's why the right partner will skyrocket your business growth: Image
When I met her in 2021, I wasn't broke but I wasn't rich either.

Just another guy grinding in e-commerce, failing products, trying to scale.

She saw potential, not promises.

And that changed everything.
Here's the thing about entrepreneurship...

You need someone who gets that you'll work 16-hour days sometimes.

Who understands when you're negotiating with suppliers at midnight.

Who doesn't take it personal when you're locked in on a launch.

Don't spend $7,500 on a Rolex.

Instead, invest it in an Amazon product that can pay you $7,500 every month.

(One product made me $19k/mo).

Best part?

You don't need to quit your job to start.

Here's exactly how to do it: Image
First, understand how selling on Amazon works.

It’s NOT dropshipping.

You find products already selling well, create your own version, and Amazon handles everything:

• You buy inventory in bulk
• Ship it to Amazon's warehouses
• They store it, pack it, ship it to customers
Here's exactly what I did with $7,500:

• Product inventory (300 units @ $6): $1,800
• Professional photos & copywriting: $600
• Miscellaneous (samples, logo, inspections): $600
• Ad spend budget: $1,000

Total initial investment: $4,000

You keep $3,500 for quick reorders.
