Glenn Berger has built a unique and surprisingly profitable business by diving into water hazards at some of Florida’s most prestigious golf courses to collect and sell lost golf balls.
Over the course of his 14-year career, the 40-year-old has amassed an impressive collection of 15 million golf balls, which he resells for a profit.
Depending on the type of ball, he can earn anywhere from 25 cents to as much as $2 per ball. While Glenn hasn’t revealed his exact wealth, his business is clearly thriving.
With an annual shipment of two million golf balls to international buyers, it’s evident that he’s earning a substantial income.
At those rates, even if he sells the balls for a modest price, the revenue quickly adds up, securing him a comfortable living. His entrepreneurial venture demonstrates how a unique and unconventional approach can lead to significant financial success.
