What’s going on everybody—Justin here, otherwise known as The Flipping Accountant. In this update video I explain why I disappeared for about 18–19 months and what’s been going on behind the scenes. The big thing that kicked it off was a busted pipe and a flooded garage while I was back home in Michigan for the holidays. I lost roughly $10,000 worth of stuff and had to deal with insurance, plus it forced me to look at how much inventory I’d piled up (especially Lego). On top of that, I got a letter from Lego’s lawyers after I started sending a ton of sets into Amazon FBA, so I ended up selling off most of my Lego investments instead of continuing at that scale. I also talk about the personal side: a precancerous mole on my ear that took multiple procedures and finally a plastic surgeon to get clean margins, plus just being burned out trying to juggle a full-time accounting job, the gym, relationships, and consistent uploads. In 2024 I dealt with a tendon rupture from pickleball, and I also had to say goodbye to my Yorkie mix, Bernie, which was honestly brutal. The good news is I’m back creating again, and I started a new channel called Reseller Hints focused on beginner-friendly reselling tutorials (Amazon, eBay, and more). My goal is to monetize it fast, then I’ll bring more energy back to this channel—clearance sourcing, flips, and whatever you guys want to see next.
