Ever heard of leasing a business with the option to buy? And then Flip the Option to another buyer and make 13.5x ROI? Well, I did it... & @WilsonCompanies encouraged me to write it up. Thanks, John! Thread time!

My last boss in the Army Just died in a single engine plane crash. On the local news they didn't even mention that he was a Major General and dedicated 30 years of his life to the Government and the Army Y'all, nobody cares Go live your life the way you want to live it.

My wife and I have 7 kids. 4 things take up the most time: 1. Laundry (unbelievable) 2. Cooking (huge meals) 3. Dishes (never ceasing) 4. Cleaning (always needing) Who has figured out a cost efficient way of outsourcing one of these?

There is a reason small businesses trade at a 2-4x SDE If you don't know that reason, you are in for a rough ride

I think "Fuck you money" is being able to turn down opportunity with no effect to your lifestyle. Just talked to a really good friend this morning who turned down millions of investor money cause the $2mm+ in EBITDA he is making is enough. AND, he gets to do whatever/whenever

I stopped watching the news many years ago and my life improved overall. It was a conscious decision. Who’s on this pirate ship with me?

LOI signed by both parties on a Plumbing/HVAC deal at a 2.4x SDE. They are out there--keep pushing. Due Diligence starts today with basic financials and calls with banks.
