The New Entrepreneur: NYC Man Earns $55,000 A Year Peddling Candy On Subway
I love the fact that entrepreneurship comes in a variety of ways and doesn’t always appear the way you think it would. Check out this article at AOL’s job site on Alex “Tracks” McFarland and his innovative business venture.
Alex “Tracks” McFarland started selling candy on the subway at age 11, and is the subject of a two-minute documentary by Bianca Consunji (via New York magazine). With his 13 years of experience, Tracks knows the business well. Peanut M&Ms is his biggest seller, but he’s got Welch’s Fruit Snacks if you prefer your candy grape-flavored and gummy.
And many New Yorkers spend that dollar. Tracks walks the D train in $300 kicks, and takes home around $55,000 a year, in cash. “These M&Ms, I take care of my family with this,” he tells the camera. British paper The Daily has also reported on this NYC go-getter, stating that McFarland, “says he’s offering a valued service by helping to boost the blood sugar of wilting travelers.”
