As early as August 31, people in New York City started lining up outside the flagship store of Apple. They are so eager to be among the firsts to get the feel of iPhone 6, which by the way is not announced yet. But for certain, the new generation of iPhone will be announced next week at an anticipated media event.

Among the very firsts to line up as early as August are Joseph Cruz and Brian Ceballo. Representing electronic reseller BuyBackWorld, they told CNBC that they wanted to break the current in-line record, which is 18 days. You may call it loyalty, dedication, or even outright insanity, but they are just being smart. They are actually making money. Now, you may ask how is that possible?

When Moon and Jason Ray approached the two and asked them to take their place they immediately agreed. Why? They just walked away happily with $2,500 from the Rays, who will stay in line for weeks to promote VideoMedicine. It is an app designed to allow users to communicate with doctors through Skype.

So, if you are wondering why people would wait for about three weeks you now know the answer. If you are asking don't they have any job you now know what they are doing is moneymaking.

Apparently, for some people, waiting in line has become a job. They are called professional line-sitters. And why wouldn't they when they can earn thousands of dollars? Ceballo has already waited in line for different Apple product launches. From these, he has earned around $7,000. Thousands of dollars made just from sitting patiently. Add to that the impact on his number of social media followers. He has also become more popular with the attention he got from the media.
