Latisha, a content creator, said that selling ear wax has earned her up to Rs 9,000 per day.

In an age where people are constantly looking for innovative ways to make money, one woman turned a rather unpleasant activity into a profitable business. Latisha Jones, a social media influencer and content creator, found a niche that many would consider unusual – selling ear wax.

According to reports from the Daily Star, Latisha, who is popular on platforms like TikTok, recently shared one of her side hustles in a viral video. The side hustle, a term used to describe work that people take on in addition to their main job, has earned her significant earnings – up to Rs 9,000 per day. But the nature of her business left many people both astonished and appalled.

Latisha’s business involves cleaning her ears with cotton buds, then selling the used ear buds along with the ear wax still attached. She packages the waxy cotton buds in sealed bags and ships them to customers, who, it turns out, are willing to pay for such an unconventional product. In fact, some customers even seem to have an obsession with ear wax, and for them, the more wax present, the more they are willing to pay.

To add a personal touch, Latisha includes a card with each order, often kissing it before sending it off to the buyer. This quirky extra has seemingly enhanced the appeal of her offering.

While it may sound repulsive to some, Latisha’s followers are fascinated by her unusual side business, and many are eager to get their hands on the ear buds. Some even admit that they are now reconsidering throwing their own used cotton buds away.
