Stacy Gallego is a semi-retired registered nurse from Tucson, AZ who took on flipping items as a full-time gig. After bankruptcy in 2002 and completely transforming her finances, she has discovered flipping as a way to make an amazing living.
In the summer of 2018, she saw a video of Rob and Melissa from Flea Market Flipper about selling large, higher profit tems and realized the potential. Stacy went through Flipper University and coaching one on one with Rob and Melissa. The rest is pretty much history.
That summer, she wondered, “What could I do with just $0.50?” She bought something at a yard sale for $0.50, sold it the next day, and since then has made over $150K flipping items, never putting in any other personal money into her flipping business.
Stacy has been able to step away from her nursing job to pursue full-time flipping. She’s been enjoying retirement with her husband, John, who retired from the federal government at age 56 after 35 years of service. They have six children and two grandchildren.
Stacy enjoys coaching people in personal finance, flipping full-time (with part-time hours), traveling across the world with her family, and sharing her journey with Jesus by teaching at women’s Bible studies and retreats.
