🚨 BROKE? Do This in 24 Hours!

0:00 If you need to make money fast, this video is for you. I'm going to show you 10 of my favorite ways to make money quickly but calmly. We're not going to be in a frantic state here, even though we have an urgent problem. If you're new to my channel, my name is Arlin. 10 years ago, I was homeless and frantic. Today, I have invested in more than 200 companies. You can Google me if you want. And I also make millions of dollars a year for myself and other people. And I teach tens of thousands of students how to do the same. So in this video, if you watch the entire thing, I'm going to show you step by step what you could do. Now, the goal here and the key here is to do one of these. You're

0:49 not going to do all 10 or try to do all 10. You're going to see all 10 and see which one resonates with you most or which one feels more realistic to you. And then you're going to do either one of them one time or you're going to do the same thing a few times depending on how much you make. But we're trying to get $5,000. And we're going to do that with this math here. So I want you to also know that oh it's already falling. We'll see what happens. I want you to also know that if you are watching this in January of 2026, I am going on tour. I just announced New York, Atlanta, and DC, I will be there. I live in Los Angeles, so this will be really fun. I haven't been officially at these places in two years.

1:34 You can go to Stanto Stan.store/myfirstname Arlland. The link is also in the description below, but this is the address. Especially if you're on a TV right now, you don't have the link in front of you. You can go to this on your phone and you can get tickets right now before they sell out. If you get there and they're no longer available, I promise I'll try to come back later, the second half of the year. And also, you can join me in your first million live in Los Angeles in Beverly Hills in April of 2026. More information coming soon. Okay, are you ready? We're going to go from 10 to one. And these are all bangers. They're all good. There's not a bad one in the bunch, but they are in order of my favorites. Okay, so we'll

2:21 start with 10. You see, I have a heart here. Like I said, it's not a bad thing. It's just something. So, run errands. Truly, if you need to make some money, run some errands for somebody or for several people. You can get set up on something like a thumbtack or a Task Rabbit if you want to go through that process. Or you could just go out and put on Instagram, put on Facebook, put on LinkedIn, hey, I'm running errands. I'm doing this specific thing. I'll go pick up something for you. Um, that type of thing. And I do this all the time. And I also pay other people to do this for me. So, I used to be a runner and at concerts and I would do this. And then I became a production coordinator and tour manager and then I had runners running

3:06 for me. So, I've done both uh sides of this and you can do this for 50 bucks a pop, 75 bucks a pop and it really starts to add up. Okay, number nine. We are going to set up a stand store. And I know it's it's going to set up a stand store and stand. Again, if you go here to get the tickets, stan.store/arland, you'll see what a standtore looks like. And I teach this because I've made almost $300,000 on Stan. But listen, I'm not saying and you certainly could set up your own stand but and do that and I teach you how to do that and I show you in the description below if you want to learn. But here's a cool thing. Let's say

3:51 you've already learned how to set it up for yourself. You got that part. But there are some people who want their own stand, but they don't know how to set it up or they don't want to set it up. You could set it up for them because if they do it right and if they go over time and they give it, you know, patience, they could make money on Stan. I've made almost 300,000 in less than a year. They could make $300, $3,000 or more. So, wouldn't they want to pay you $100, $200, $300 to set up their stand store to get them all ready to set up their products? Especially if you've taught yourself how to do it, if you're in my Stan OS, or if you go and teach yourself now how to do it, let me know in the

4:38 comments if this is already helping you think of things that you hadn't thought of today. Okay, the next one. And remember, this is in order of my favorites. They're all good. They're all ones that you could do. You're going to choose just one though. Next one is set up school. Same thing as stand. You're going to set up. And I know it may be a little hard to see it with the light, but this says set up a school. So sk o l school is where I have multiple memberships, including your first 5k, which is where I teach you how to make $5,000. And I do it for free. The link is in the description below. I'd love for you to join us. We're having a great time. There are more than 8,000 people in there now. More than 5,000 have

5:23 joined in the last two weeks alone, mostly from YouTube. So, come on over if you're not there yet. But if you have your own school, which hundreds of my students do, then you could help someone else set up their school. Now, you wouldn't, you know, post this in your first 5K. It's not you're going to be a marketplace in there, but you may go out to other people and say, "You should be on school. I think you would be great on school. Let me set you up. And you charge them $100, 200, 500. I've seen people charge a lot for this. But when you're just getting started, you may do it for free for the first person. Get some points on board. Get, you know, have some screenshots and testimonials and everything and then charge 100 and then charge 200 and so on. And you get

6:09 people set up. And why would they pay you and not just do it themselves? A lot of people want a school if they know about it, but they don't ever get over the c the finish line because they're busy, because they are uh neglecting it, because it's not a high priority, because they don't know how to do a good job. So, they think that they can't do it at all. It's a very simple so very simple to use and to set up. I teach you how to do both inside your first 5K. But sometimes people just want convenience. Okay, so now that was just three so far. How are we doing in the comments? Let me know. Everything is falling. I love this. Okay, number seven. You may not be able to read it, so I'll read it for you. Film YouTube or

6:57 course videos for other people. So, you're going to film videos for other people. What do I mean by that? Well, let's say you really enjoy filming videos. You have no problem hearing your own voice. You actually like the process, but you don't necessarily have your own channel or you do have your own channel, but you have someone else who has a completely different niche and need. So, let's say you do something that has to do with small business owners or coaches or helping women get empowered. You have a YouTube channel. you like being on camera and then there's a doctor that you know and

7:44 you're like that doctor needs to be on YouTube. Now, of course, the ideal situation would be the doctor is on YouTube. But if that doctor, if you know they're never going to get on YouTube, unless you help them, then you could either produce their videos for them, meaning help them film it, help them get it edited, help them get it uploaded, and you're their consultant. Okay? If you taught yourself how to do any of this, you can do it for others. Or you literally film the videos on their behalf with their information and their input. You could interview them or you, you know, that's a really great way to do it because you're interviewing them. They can just be themselves or you can interview them off camera and then then take that onto camera. Now, one thing

8:30 you would do really well is with a course. A lot of times people want a course but they do not want to film that course. So if you go to Fiverr right now, Fiverr Fi VeR, right now you will see multiple people who will film videos for you. Why don't you just do this service for someone you know or put the word out that you do it? The next one, number six, pixel thumbnails. Now, I say pixel because this is my favorite uh AI tool for thumbnails. It's p i k zel thumbnails and it helps you make beautiful, awesome YouTube thumbnails for yourself. You upload 15 to 20

9:16 pictures of yourself and then you prompt it. You tell it what you want or you even recreate it from someone else's with your picture and it'll give you these thumbnails. So the thumbnail you see right now for this video was done on pixels and every other video you've seen the last 100 videos of mine are on pixels for the most part. So, what I'm saying you could do here is you could charge other people $10, $15 to do their thumbnail per thumbnail. $5 per thumbnail because it will cost you maybe 50 cents if you have a pixels account. And that's just an average, you know, could take more if it takes more prompts and credits. Maybe it cost you 50 cents. you charge five or

10:02 $10 per thumbnail and someone needs 10 thumbnails a month, it starts to add up. If you do several of those for several people and it will take you 30 minutes, an hour, two hours to do something like that and you made 50 bucks, right? So, if these things add up, again, you're choosing one and we've done half now. You're not going to necessarily want to do them all. Remember, if you are in New York, Atlanta, or uh DC, I can't wait to see you in January 2026. You can get your tickets at stan.store/arlin. You can come by yourself, by the way. Some people are like, I don't know if I should go by myself. Don't wait to find somebody to go with you. You'll come by yourself. You'll leave with a friend. I promise you, somebody who you can uh

10:48 call a friend after that. Okay. Number five, custom GPT. What is a custom GPT? write the words custom GPT in the in the uh comments. Let me know you're still with me. So, when you use chat GPT, that's a GPT. On chat GPT, it allows you to create a customized version of chat GPT that is about a specific topic and has your training, your voice, your answers. And it is not difficult to do this. You can learn how to do this searching for this on YouTube, going into your first 5K. I actually have a custom GPT training free inside of your first 5K's

11:35 classroom. So, it'll teach you how to do the custom GPT I'm talking about. Then you learn how to do one. You make one for yourself. You see how awesome it is. And then you build this for someone else. Now, there are two ways to monetize this, main ways. One way is to build it. And it is such a great service and it does such a great job that you can charge people for access to it. Hey, it's $29 to have access to it. I'm going to sell a few of those. But another way, if you're trying to make $5,000 pretty fast. Another way would be again go to someone who has a really interesting job, has money, has something that they're doing and they want to get out to more people, but they don't have the time or the desire to do this by themselves. So, someone who is a coach

12:22 or someone who you've seen out there in this world and they don't have a custom GPT, but you know that it would serve them well to have one, you teach yourself or learn from me how to make a custom GPT. Go to the link below. Go to join your first 5K. And then you build this for them. It'll take you a day, two days, a week. When you first get started, it may take you like a week to really do an amazing one, but after you do them a few times, it'll maybe take you an hour. And then you say, "Okay, I am building custom GPTs for $500 or for a,000 or for $2,000." People are out here spending $5,000, $10,000 for custom GPTs, depending on which ones they are. Yes, every person

13:10 that I know could learn all of these things and do it themselves. And yes, most of them will not. And I tell you a good way to decide that and tell me tell me I'm telling you the truth. Are you going to do all 10 of these and learn all 10 of these? Is there one of these that you are not going to learn and care about? Then wouldn't you pay somebody else to do it for you? at some point. That's what I'm talking about. Okay, number four. This is a favorite of mine because it's about that your first 5K I've been talking about. Now, this one's a cool thing. I You may know what an affiliate is. I'm like drowning in these, by the way. You may know what an affiliate is, but I want to tell you how this is cooler than any affiliate program you've ever seen. Are you ready for that? Make sure you're subscribed, too, because I want you to see the rest of these videos. I can't wait for this video to come out because it's going to

13:56 help so many people. Okay. So, your first 5K, your first $5,000 is my free school membership. And what happens when you go on school? It school is like saying I'm on Facebook, right? School is a platform. And then I have my own membership on that platform. So, when you go to school, go to my your first 5K linked below. You are going to join a free membership. You're not going to pay to join. inside of it, you automatically get a uh you get a referral code. That is your private code. All you have to do is click a couple of buttons. It's called invite people. So on laptop, it's just a button on the community. On mobile, it's three dots at the top of the page and

14:42 you just click on that and invite people and you get that code. When you open that up, it's going to say you get 50% commission. And you're like saying,"Well, how do I get 50% of zero? What is 50% of zero is zero?" Here's the cool part. My monetary uh model, my my business model for your first 5K is a premium model, meaning it starts free and it is always free for the majority of people. But there's a percentage of people who will upgrade to a $50 or more per year membership. an upgrade. They get more stuff and or I have one off products in the classroom that cost $99 or some other price and they're very

15:28 very robust. Like I was talking about Stan OS that's in there. YouTube OS is in there. Lovable OS teaching you, giving you these AI tools. You can buy them for just $99. So, a lot of people go in there, they do all the free training, and then they're like, "Oh, I do want this this uh product. I want this tool. I want this or I want to upgrade." and get more training and then they pay. Really simple, smooth. If they came in as a free member that you invited with your code, with your link, let's say it's two months later, and they decide to buy something from me, you will get 50%. So, that one is a really, really cool one because you're basically giving out a bunch of free stuff. You're like letting you're the plug letting people

16:13 know this is free and then you get a commission if they anytime they upgrade. So every free member you bring it averages out that they are worth something monetarily because there's a percentage let's say 10 or 20%. My record is 20% of my members spend money of my free members spend money. So one out of five. So then it all balances out. So let's say they spend $50. That means that each person you bring is worth 10. Does that make sense? If it doesn't make sense, just rewind this. Write it down. Think through it a little bit. But I'm telling you, it's the truth. And in 2026, I plan on distributing up to $200,000 worth of affiliate uh commission. So, I

16:59 want you to have a part of that. All right. How are we feeling? Is this good? Let me know if you want me to do more of this type of video. Number three, we're getting really into the good stuff right now. Number three is Vibe Code. Do you know what Vibe Coding is? Have you heard about that yet? So, Vibe Coding is a lot of fun. It started out super nerdy, techy, kind of in the Silicon Valley world, but now everybody's doing it and more and more people are doing it. And by the end of 2026, everybody will be doing this, right? It'll be just a ubiquitous well-known term. And all it means is you're going to work with something like Lovable, which is my favorite, or some other platform that does an AI agent. And inside of your first 5K's classroom, I teach you all

17:45 about AI and AI agents and everything. So, you'll know everything you need to know. But basically, you tell just like you talk to chat GPT and say, "Hey, what's the capital of Utah or can you research this for me?" You actually tell the platform like a lovable, which is my favorite. I'm going to do a love here. Lovable. You tell it, I want a calculator that helps um salon owners with their budgeting and it'll build that for you in 10 minutes while you sit back and look at it. And then why it's called vibe coding is because you built it just based on vibes. You don't have to be a coder, but then you sit and you're like, "Okay, cool. This is a great start. Let's turn

18:30 that black background into a purple background." And you type that and you press return and it makes it. And then you start to just really play with it. Now, every time you do this, you're spending credits just like over here with pixels. Every time you're spending credits. Chat GPT, great example. If you have a free version of chat GPT, every time you prompt it, you're spending the 25 or so daily limit, right? Same thing here, except they're you have that based on how much you spend on lovable. So, let's say it's $20 a month and you get a certain amount of like credits. I don't know how many. And you go past that, it'll say, "Hey, do you want to buy more credits?" So, I have I think I pay $300 a month base on Lovable and then maybe

19:16 another $200 or $300 in credits because I love it so much. So, you can buy all kinds of stuff. So, the whole point here then is there are going to be some people who love doing this and some people who never learn about it and some people who learn about it but don't want to do it. So for you, you think of different things, different landing pages, different lead magnets, different monetizable websites, full full working websites that you can build by talking to it over a few days and you sell that to someone. So you could either make it and then go out looking for someone who wants to buy it from you or you could look for the customer and say, "What do you need built?" Or you could think of some type of of thing to build and build

20:04 that for multiple people. Let's say there's all kinds of that, you know, there's plumbers, right? Plumbers may need certain contracts. They may need certain billing information, certain invoices made. You can make an you can create an invoice builder for plumbers by typing I want an invoice maker for plumbers and just working with it. So, you could I just saw this guy um who was interviewed on Lovable. He makes these all day long. He and his team. He charges $10,000 each. He spends maybe three or four days cuz he's really good at it now and makes 10,000. Now, this may take you a week to do, but what a year ago or two years ago, it would have taken a coder or a

20:51 designer months to do. months and tens of thousands of dollars. So, let's say you have a really amazing thing that you can make for people and you charge $1,000 and you sell five of them. If you go to my stand store, I have I'm doing this right now as an experiment. I'm selling for $1,000. I will build your a page for you. I'll build a project for you and lovable knowing full well that I also teach people how to do it themselves, but most people don't do it. So, I already have customers. I build them pages. I love doing it. Takes me a few hours because I'm really good at it now. And I make $1,000. Now, I can't do this forever because I make a lot more doing other stuff. But, this is amazing. This is an

21:39 amazing opportunity for you. Now, I don't even have here. I'm going to add this real quick because I should have prompts. Sell prompts. Just sell them. Add them to everything. And you can use prompts over here on your vibe coding. So if you get lovable OS, which is on my stand store, or if you get prompt shop in a box, which is in my stand store, they will give you everything you need to be a prompt master and to vibe code. Okay. Next. Number two, VIP day. I am a big fan of the VIP day. That's why it's two out of 10. VIP day. What does that mean? You spend

22:26 a day or half a day or some amount of time focused on one customer. That may be you meet with them in person and you will hash out what they're working on and you help them get a solution fast. It may be you're virtual and you do the same thing over hours on Zoom and take breaks and come back. That could be talking. It could be that you build them something like you could actually incorporate these two things. You could build them a page, but you're dedicated to them for the day and nobody else gets to get your attention that day. So, they're your VIP customer and you're going to vibe code them a page and you're going to charge them $1,000 for that. I'm telling you right now, even if you've never made that kind of money on

23:11 your own, you've only been paid by people. I'm telling you right now, I can think of a thousand people who would do that. And I I just mean because there are so many entrepreneurs out there, there are so many professionals out there. There are so many authors out there, speakers, coaches, people who need stuff. And it's the people like us who are willing to just learn it. learn one of these things and just iterate and just take the time to do it. I'd much rather learn how to do this than work for somebody making $20 an hour. No, no shade. I'm just saying this is this is why I don't work for anybody anymore. I used to for most of my life, but I much rather it's a little

23:57 stressful. It's a little bit like I'm flying by the seat of my pants, but I get to make my own choices and my own schedule and I get to travel wherever I want to. And I have customers. And yes, where do you find the customers? That's a big question. That's why I have your first 5K. That's why I teach you step by step inside of our 5day challenge exactly how to find your customers step by step. But the bigger picture is don't let one question stop you from doing this. And let me know if you're still with me. I want you to say the word prompts. Prompts in the chat if you're still with me. Also, let me know if you're coming to see me in New York, Atlanta, or DC on my January 2026 tour cuz I would love to see you. And let me know if any of these are resonating with you. Okay. Now, if you

24:45 missed any of them because you couldn't see them, just rewind and you can see what I talked about. Now, number one, one of you can guess. Can you guess what this is? Call. Oneonone calls. One-on-one calls. Okay, one-on-one calls. What are they and why are they my f my favorite? One-on-one calls are what they sound like. You're having a conversation with another person, just the two of you. One to one. They're my favorite on this list because if I'm in an urgent situation, I know that there are a couple of things I can do and set up on standtore. I can do one-on- ones on Calendarly, on Zoom, whichever, phone calls, in person, and I

25:31 can have a 30 minute conversation with someone and I can make money from that if I'm in a pinch. And I used to be homeless. So, I never want to be homeless again. I never want to be hungry again. So, I know the worst case is I can have these one-on-one calls. Now, you might be saying to yourself, I don't I'm an introvert. I don't like calling people. I don't like that. just take it away. It's no, don't just take it away. Don't do that one. Don't do it. But if you're if you're like, h, what does that mean? You can have calls. So, let's say you do have a YouTube channel. And if you don't have one, please start one in 2026. But let's say you do have a YouTube channel. Your no matter what your topic

26:17 is, in your next video, you could do a call to action, a CTA. And in the video, at some point, you could say in the description below, there's a link to my stand store, which will let you get a one-on-one with me, and you could have it set up for $20, 15, 30, $50, $100. I would start like that, okay? And you get it set up and it is whatever your topic is. There's a woman who hula hoops and I saw her, you were watching my you were watching my uh my video a few days ago, and you put it on Instagram. If she weren't already doing my working on my teachings, I would say to her, "Look, hula hoop." And say, "Hey, do you want to learn how to hula hoop or do you want to learn how this helped me heal?" Because that's what she does. I do a 30 minute $30 one-on-one session just for

27:03 you because I know you're busy. So, you just set it up. I'll talk to you. You have my full attention for 30 minutes. She could do that all day long. And it's not just YouTube. It's other things. And that's why I teach you everything you need to know in your first 5K. By the way, if you're in your first 5K, let me know that, too. Are you having a ball in there like I am? Because I'm having a great time. Okay, so this is it. This is it. This is your setup. There's something here for you. Don't let anybody tell you you can't do one of these things. You can. And what I want you to do is I want you to breathe. And I want you to recognize that you're doing a great job. If you watch this whole video, let me tell you something. You are epic. You are legendary if you watch this whole video because it means you're

27:49 invested in yourself. It means that you care. It means that you wanted to see all 10 of these and choose one. It's okay where you are right now. Your circumstances do not define who you are. Your circumstance. Let me say it to you. Your circumstances do not define who you are. It's just your circumstances. If I let my circumstances define me 10 years ago, I would be I don't know where I'd be, but I was sleeping on the floor of an airport 10 years ago. And um that's a that was a whole lifetime ago, but it was just yesterday. And what I did was I said, "What can I figure out for myself?" And I figured it out. Again, you can Google me to figure out what I did or you can get one of my two books. It's about damn time or your first million. It's about damn time is my first book and it tells the full story.

28:36 So, I would get that one first. I hope this has been helpful to you. Share it with someone else who would benefit from this and let me see what you do. Tell me how this worked out for you. Do something about it. This is not Netflix. You got to do something about it and you can change your
