What? You mean how do you buy locks from China and resell them?

become a cocksmith instead
Or... go out at night and follow street-sweeper trucks around, picking up the broken-off metal bristles.
Then files these down into hooks and bumps at one end, other end wrap in tape make a proper wooden handle. Buy a lock core from the hardware store, cheapest possible will be easiest. Also get a set of allen keys, pick one thats the right size and file down the short part of the L on top and bottom so it can fit in the keyway of your lock.
Then apply some torque and use your hook-pick to get practicing.

after you become elite with your picking just walk into any locksmith, ask to see the boss, stare the locksmith straight in the eye, Hold up your lock and picks, pick without breaking eye contact, as the lock opens in 3.21sec tell him you know that you suck but you are an enthusiastic and reliable young man willing to do whatever it takes to open the lock on the trade. Extend you hand to give a FIRM HANDSHAKE. Enjoy your apprenticeship

stupid people will always get locked out of things and need someone who can pick locks to help them
unless they themselves can pick a lock or they have a friend that can do it they'll call a locksmith
