JEN: Hey Rosi. [Hmph] Hey Rosi. Hey Rosi. Hey Rosi. He-e-y-y Rosi. Rosi. Rosi. Hey Rosi. [Ah] How do I become a wildly successful blogger/YouTube celebrity/social media guru with my own product line and make millions of dollars?
ROSI: Did you mean how to earn money online?
JEN: Yeah.

ROSI: Listing your items for sale online is an easy way to declutter and make some cash at the same time.
JEN: Tell me more.
ROSI: Options include online marketplaces, auction sites and buy-back sites for electronics, textbooks, movies, games and designer clothing.

ROSI: Online platforms make it easy to sell stock photos, artwork, merchandise, e-books, online courses and video tutorials in your area of expertise.
JEN: Nice.
ROSI: I see you have your own website. Advertising and affiliate marketing are ways to earn passive income on existing blogs, podcasts and videos.
