Hilarious Shoe Shiner Makes $900 Per Day Shaming Shoes on the Street | New York Post

- Don Ward - whose stand is prominently perched at 47th Street and Sixth Avenue in Manhattan - jokingly chides Midtown schlubs when their hooves aren’t up to par. Ward says he first decided to go into the shoeshine business when one of his former colleagues made more money in one day polishing than he did all week at a photo job he previously had. Ward has been shining shoes and cracking jokes for 17 years.
A Midtown heckler claims he makes up to $900 per day shaming shoes, then shining them.
“How do you catch fish? You’ve gotta use good bait,” Ward told The Post.
“A lot of people walk by and they’re in their own little bubble. I tell jokes,” said Ward, adding that he’s always looking for the dirtiest pair of shoes he can find.
Ward explained that his job also affords him independence.
“I don’t have no incompetent boss giving me orders. I have no backstabbing co-workers trying to get brownie points. I’m free, ” Ward told The Post.

It sounds like you need to take better care of your shoes, dude. As a matter of fact, I'll bet you're due for a shine RIGHT NOW.
He's there until 6.
What did he say?
You never seen him
AP82 did he say your shoes used to be brown? 👞
"The shoes formerly known as brown"
That killed me.

It's funny because he's currently known as brown
Pretty sure he said "formally".

He said he made $900 that day. New York post took that and made it a whole title and claimed that he made that everyday.

Technically speaking, he could very well have a million dollars in the bank one day.
Exactly what I was thinking. The dude's makes $250k a year. In only 4, he's a millionaire..

It's not about how much money you make, it's how much you save. People who have made 40k a year have become millionaires just from saving and compound interest.
*Making money by insulting people fashion choice?*
*This man is living the dream!*
No this is patrick I wouldn’t call it an insult. It’s more of a compliment if you ask me!

Thought about how much he pays to run that place? Bet the price for that little piece of land is at least half of what he earns
Pancake $150,000 a year does not sound that bad.
Yea he’s not making that much money. He’d be shining shoes non stop for 9 straight hours. Do the math if he charges 5 dollars a shine he’d need to shine 180 pairs of shoes a day to make 900. If it takes him 3 minutes to shine a pair of shoes he’d be shining for 9 hours straight non stop.

$900USD a day?! Tf am I goin to university for
Maybe he went to university for sales work lol
So you don't get filtered out by the hr process
You're going there so that you learn to be critical, not jump to conclusions, and think. How much is he selling shoe shines for? How much would you guess he gets tipped? How many shoe shines do you think he does per hour? Now be generous, and see that it doesn't add up to 900.
So you can get a desk job and not get mugged on your way home
If it was easy we would all do it
Getting $900 per Day by roasting people's shoes.....Nice job

Street tax to the municipal authorities
The average rent here in NYC is somewhere around 4k per month if you want something bigger than a studio in a decent area. Plus some of the highest state taxes, highest tolls and gas prices..not including our property taxes being 15k a year or more if you own a suburban home that typically range between 500k and 1 mill. $900 is a lot of money, but unfortunately if you live in NYC you’re most likely paying $500 a day just to live here.

He is a Entreprenuer he makes more then a college graduate
More than VP of a fortune 100.
He makes more than many College professors.
Yes, he does make more than a college graduate.
Pretty sure this guy here makes more yearly than Elon Musk. Anyone got the data to confirm? Yhanks
that has nothing to do with Entrepreneurship, he's a specialist, once he stops working he stops getting income, an entrepreneur sets up a business that can run with or without him
People like him I respect the most. He finds his own way in crazy NYC. Hard work with style.
"Sir, you gotta look down sometimes" lol I love how that could mean many different things
This guy needs his own show shining people's shoes and getting their inner most secrets. Would become a series in no time!
Just think of the stock trading tips he gets
Yeah, I would definitely watch his realty show.
Its like gordan ramsey
“Back Stabbing Coworkers Trying To Get Brownie Points”
Amen to that I totally agree on that 1
So true this is the main problem in corporate workplace
My point exactly
It's facts. See it all the time at work.
I've literally never experienced that. We work as a team at my job.
I’ve seen this guy on his corner doing the shoe thing, but he shouldn’t be telling everyone he makes $900 a day
Molly Loucks IRS will be calling
Just Me no they won’t, it’s a cash business so no taxes.
@@clodia1834 You don't know how the world works do you. Cash businesses often easily hide their income, but he's basically declared that he earns $900 and if the tax man finds out then he owes tax, doesn't matter if he got the income in cash.
@@clodia1834 you don't know how the world works do you
He never said a day.
He was asked about today to which he replied about 900.
My shoelaces:*not tied with perfect symmetry * Don: “yOuNg mAn”
900 a day!! I'm in the wrong business...
SD Canyon Carver .....$900 minus the absurdly high cost of living in NY
@@Ocean_Ave That and I HIGHLY doubt he makes that daily.
He makes more than 20000 a month lol 🤣 far more than average restraunt worker
Steven Bean his sign said 5$, he would have to shine 180 pair of shoes a day.
@@rawbundy4676 lol and then he says i'll never be a millionaire...dude making $18k a month and 200k+ a year. 5 years of saving or 3 years of investing and he'd be on easy. But realisticly he prob made $900 on his best day and then maybe makes $50 on a bad day, not $900 consistently.
He got a better hustle than most i respect him
EXACTLY!! The man is making a living!
He's pathetic.....I would rather to wipe the floors than his job
Cousin Jeff well he’s making big money loves the job!
$900/day = about $200k/yr. This guy begging for an IRS audit in public.
Guy dont work
I was reading all comments looking for this observation. tax preparer question; have you received/earned money in the type of [....]?
I don't think he works in the winter. However he still make a lot of money.
@@xX12VincEXx he literally has a snow jacket and a hat on.
Hopefully he pays his taxes
Having "No backstabbing coworkers" is reason enough to do what he's doing!!! I've never in my life made a friend at any job I had because coworkers are definitely backstabbers.
Freedom to serve who he wants. Better than any office job!
Alex Povolotski its only better because he is earning 900 dollars per day. at least that's what he claims.
that's my dream job!
Shakti Prasad Mishra he won’t pay tax because it’s cash so the irs can’t trace it, he will get tipped a lot by the rich businessmen in New York
Freelancer
illusion
I thought this was a sketch with Keenan from SNL
kenny han I bet people ask if it is him all the time
Wow is that racism? Are you saying all black people look alike?
@@americanmutt2901 no, put your race card back in your wallet. He's saying one man looks like the other one. They just happen to be black. If they were white would you think he was saying all whites look alike? No, you wouldn't.
Break out a pair of my Stacy Adam's Pay him to let me post up in his chair, just to rest from walking. Naw bruh, my shoes are 🔥, but I'm tired, here's a 100.00 go get you something to eat.
Uhhh I think he was being sarcastic
After the IRS sees this video, he won't be hilarious any longer.
He probably already declares his income... at least some of it. He could still argue he was just exaggerating though.
Specially after he admitted to be doing it for so so long, lol
Fact
What’s it matter to you? You must be one of those coworkers he was talking about.
@@thefalcon7512
Exactly! People are always worried & concerned about the wrong things🤦🏾♂️
A man that gets up and makes his own way in life is a true man.
