The main risk with Reselling · Designer & vintage clothing
You must tie up capital in stock, and a badly assessed item stays unsold.
Budget: CA$100–300.
The main risk with AI video editing
You must reach out: without steady outreach, no client arrives on their own.
Budget: CA$0–60 a month (CapCut or free DaVinci Resolve are enough at first).
How we calculate
Each aspect is worth points: what you like doing 22, time 14, contact 14, budget 12, timing 10, location 10, risk 10, stock 8. “Good fit” earns all of the aspect’s points, “Partial” half, “Watch out” 0.
The score measures how well your answers match what the business demands: it is not a chance of success nor an income forecast.
What we ruled out, and why
Local marketing: in-person or phone outreach is the only path (you prefer messages).
