A woman paid off her $80k student loan in THREE YEARS by buying and reselling clothes on eBay and Depop.
Kelsey Mikula, 26, started buying and reselling clothes in 2020 when she struggled to find a job coming out of university.
During this time, Kelsey would do shifts as a unit secretary in a hospital and sell clothes as a side hustle.
Kelsey buys clothes from charity shops like Salvation Army, Goodwill and local thrift stores, then sells them on sites like eBay and Depop.
