How did that person get rich off cat litter?
Sewage. Hauling it, diving in it, installing and repairing major lines. The owner was able to create a multiacre farm in a gated community in a location where land is expensive and limited. If that doesn’t scream f you money, Idk what does.
I mean you Saas cats probably think construction is pretty ugly, but I know a lot of people making a lot of money.

Trash route in rural Georgia near a few biggish towns. Lots of people live outside of municipal areas and have to contract their own trash service directly
Um..big pharma? The American food industry? Meat processing industry? Monsanto? That’s easy to answer

My family owns funeral homes and cemeteries. Pretty odd business but it pays well, and everyone dies unfortunately so it will never end.

Guy didn’t get rich, but ran a very successful sports card and memorabilia store for most of his life. That in and of itself isn’t ugly. But he is a hoarder. Would buy stuff to sell in the store constantly. Never got rid of any card, just kept them in boxes. Had no problem selling things, obviously, but he had to get SOMETHING for it. His store was in the local mall, and it was so packed full of stuff that you could barely walk around. Just these narrow paths around the space. Not wheelchair accessible at all. A fucking spark and the whole mall would have probably burned down. Finally retired and sold a number of years back and the new owner finally cleaned it up.
