Episode 24: Dasti Llenga, American Liquidations

from THIS is a Thing · host Dana Mauriello

Dasti Llenga was juggling three things at once — private equity job, master's degree, growing side hustle — when he asked himself a simple question: what could he do if he put all his focus into one?It started with a $4,000 Mercedes he flipped for $15,000 in three days. Then came the flea market finds, the first liquidation pallet, a truckload of Costco returns sold out of his parents' garage. By the time his employer told him to come back to the office, the decision was already made.Today Dasti runs American Liquidations — New England's largest liquidator — with nearly 100 employees and 200,000 square feet across Connecticut.www.americanliquidations.comNewsletter --> nationofdoers.substack.com
