Wolfe Started Picking at a Young Age
If Mike Wolfe seems like a pro at ‘picking,’ it’s probably because he has been doing this since he was a kid. It turns out that Wolfe used to find abandoned bicycles that he later sold for $5. Then he came up with the idea of buy a bunch of rusty bikes from farmers that he would later repair and sell to customers at a higher price than he originally paid. This became the start of what would one become a lucrative career and reality show.
