Sardines

There are unique ways to create revenue while in college. One of my friends just happens to be a genius for thinking of this one idea. I wish I had the same circumstance so I could turn a dime as easy as him.

During concerts or athletic events, he and his roommates move all of their cars out of their driveway and charge the fans for parking spaces. Since he has a prime location, they make some serious dough. They charge about twenty dollars per spot and of course they squeeze the cars in like sardines. I have heard of people doing this and even organizing a whole apartment complex to relocate their cars to a shopping mall in order to charge for every possible parking space.

Because we are in the real world now and not completely sheltered from all evils, I started to wonder about the liability of doing such entrepreneurial schemes. For example if anything happened to the cars, I believe it would probably be covered by the landlord or the home owner insurance. They are also taking the risk of vandalism to their house by inviting people to park in such vicinity to their cozy abode. Between the four roommates, they rotate turns as the security watchman over their house and cars. Like I said earlier, I wish I had the same opportunity for this wallet stuffing idea, but I will have to think of something better.
