restaurant owner. Italian food/steak house.
we serve over 5500 people in 6 days. Closed Sundays!
I'm torn between a cool car project and opening another store. There just aren't enough hours in a day to do both at the same time

Open the other store, get it established and running smooth with a good staff_, then do the next car. ??

that's probably what I will do 70rs. I have some good people working for me that i would like to see make really really good money. The only way that I can do that is to expand. You can only slice a pie so many times.....

This site makes me want to get started now. I'm not always the best at deferred gratification

Was in the Swimming Pool Business 25 years, Pools, Spas,Solar. also Music Engineering and Production..

Prepared and waited and between 2006 and 2009 with Housing and other investments, I changed my Life. Didn't do too Bad..

Had I been Greg Weld, I would be a Gazzilionaire by now .. I am still learning, but Music, Cars, and making money are my Passions..

So i will be doing my normal financial research and start picking Greg's brain soon..his posts are food for thought...

Better to learn how to make and keep our cash, so we can enjoy our hobbies..

Was an electronic tech (electro-mech) but now I’m one of those unemployed/students that has become more common in recent years. I’m focusing on a business right now, hoping/waiting for the market to improve and enjoying the student discounts/lifestyle in the meantime.
