That's thinking too big, too fast.

Don't over-complicate it. Just start.

You don't need loads of capital to get rolling. There's a kid and his sister that walk the neighborhood knocking doors and mowing lawns. They seem to be doing well and the boy is especially persistent. Too broke, but I paid him one time just because I was impressed with his gumption.

My wife makes a couple of hundred a week picking up crap on the side of the road and shopping FB Marketplace. Sells it at the flea market most Sundays. She hardly works at that at all.
