For 80k I would do another slot car shop. Nice customers, if proper location is found the money is extremely good, extremely fun, the hours can't be beat.
well considering total cost are under 2000$ a year ... um i would say it has been profitable... now not in the sense we spend our time; but we dont' do this full time :goodjob: .... look at it this way an initial 9$ investment has made a site worth more then 20kQuote:

The only problem with starting a business, is the 6-60 law. Theroetically, for any business to survive you'll have to make 60% of your total spent in assests, income, and expenses in a 6 month span.
I am comtimplating the idea of opening a franchise resturaunt in the Mall of Georgia area, but the wait list to recieve the franchise packet is a 4 year wait. Every entrepenuour i've talked to, whom are sucessful, has told me if i get the franchise, they will back my funding and financial assests for the first year, with 110% payback within 5 years. If it works.. free IA food day!
i would definately buy some shares of stocks man 80K isnt much when starting a business. If not stocks than i would just open a pho resturant on buford hwy.
DRAG STRIP!!!! And a damn good one!
that would be over 80k
invested. Seriously. I would invest in real estate.. But in anything you do, either investing in your own business or real estate there will be risk.
Seriously, if you have 80K try to get 20 K more and invest that in a good HIGH INTEREST account and earn some nice money month to month... I think it will be decent cheese.... and keep your job..
I honestly dont think 80K is alot to start a business (depending) what it is. But is a start.
If it was me.. and I felt like gambling, I will invest in real estate... and if I was worried and did not want to invest I would just take the money to the bank and let it earn interest w/ a nice rate... and keep my day job.
But you never know.. I know people who started jobs with 1000 bucks and are now making almost 7 figures.
And if you have more cheese.. deeper pockets.. and you want Profit ( huge margin) anything thats bad to society will make money RIGHT AWAY.
liquor store, strip club, sex shop all that bullshit will make you rich QUICK.
i would start an overseas pharmacy. ppl always need their drugs and it is very unlikely that i would face any legal trouble. thats where the money is.
surprised noone said it Laundromat...............duh
Heres something i have been contemplating for a while....im not sure if 80k is enough( probably not) but i have been thinking of opening a DIY shop... basically open up a shop where people can come and work on their own cars... pretty much say u rent out a warehouse. put in a few stalls with lifts and a few flat stalls... supply each stall with common tool. rachet and socket sets, wrenches, hammers. u know the basics. also have other tools which the custoer can rent out... rent each stall to the customer to do their own work on their car. at a price say $15 per hour. have each customer sign waivers releiving you as the owner of any possible issues. and have a few techs around to give a hand when a customer needs it....and i mean you would get loads of customers.. i mean how many times have garage tuners ahd to take their cars to shops and pay because they dont have lifts or the proper tools.. if you supply all the toold a regular shop would have... you would have buku customers.....
also about flipping houses.... it has huge payouts because its very risky in one house you can go under hundreds of thousands of dollars... the higher the risk the higher the profit... they dont show on the tv show stuff like real estate agent fees, investor fees( if you have any)... they still get a pretty good return. especially the guys who have been doing it for a while..like the guy from SC ( i think) but its time consuming and loads of labor until you get to that point....
Tire Shop/
There's a couple on here that have done that, profitable but suprisingly quite a bit of overhead...Quote:

simple...
Take the 80k, half it, take 40k invest it take the other 40k and open a karate school.
Karate schools now a day do some crazy money. The one I manage and I am a partner of easly does 30k a month with less than 10k in overhead. Some schools around the nation do 80k a month on a 20k overhead.
Then once you get the staff trained you can kick back and not do anything. Show up teach a couple of classes and then leave.
That's how i plan to retire at 30, lol
i'd buy 80k worth of crack and have a 80,000 dollar crack party
charge 10 bux per plate and have 10,000 visitors so after taxes i'd break about even.
Open up a big ass shop like this one in ATL http://tx.local.yahoo.biz/upnsmoke713/ ..maybe 2 or 3 even around metro..shiiet.
:stupid: ...wrdQuote:

My dad has a carwash and it deff is seasonal for sure and sucks like shit during the week. Its located down the street from atlanta motor speedway.
A guy in one of my classes at school went to school with a guy who started his own shit picker upper business. He made this little vacuum cleaner thing with a bag and went around to people houses asking if they needed shit picked up. Supposedly he is a millionaire now from the business.
Think about what you could do with what you have picked up, its fucking shit... bag that shit and sell it to old ladies who want to fertilize their gardens and shit so you dont need a place to dispose of it. If its true, its just one of those quirky things that people are too lazy to do.
People who own nail salons always seem to be pretty wealthy.
Cigar bar, I know there are a lot of people who like to smoke and kill themselves so why not cater to the ones with more money? Have a bunch of cigars ranging from $5-xxx amount each, serve beer and wine and such, nice leather couches and chairs. Sell all the little fancy zippos and "cigar accessories" Have attractive women working in it. Tell them to wear all black and hire the ones with large breasts. Lastly, hire some crazed old man to come in, set up his own equipment and play jazz, or something that no one understands b/c its "deep and meaning full" and your all set. I mean what businessmen wouldnt want to go hang out there after a hard day of banging the secretary, and talk about money and avoiding taxes????
I would buy a 2000 Peterbuilt and an 40cy Allison Dump trailer. Hire an experienced driver that you know through a good friend of yours. Pay the driver a commission of what the truck makes. Depend on your friend to get you work 6 days a week. Thats what YOU could do with 80 g's.
will talk to you later about this oneQuote:

I would take that 80,000 and get 2 other partners to get another 70,000 and open up a Hooters ... on the beach
^ thaats what im talkin about ha
You would need more money than that and it is hard to get a franchise. Need like 10 years of experience with franchises and a lot of other qualificationsQuote:

to the guy that said open up a shop w/ lifts and techs---i dont know about where u live but theres a hobby shop in valdosta where you pay $5 an hour and can use all of their equipment and theres a couple of people working there.
storage facility doesnt sound like a bad plan...you cant do much with real estate at 80k, but if you started up a smaller business and made some money, then you could do real estate on top of that.
you dont want to open up a restaurant, it is not worth the pain and agony you will go through..unless you open up a hooters on the beach. business at these places during march-october = AMAZING!! besides that restaurants are bad news.
this guy in valdosta opened up a pizza place, $5 pick up one topping--dont have delivery...and apparently in the year he has been opened he upgraded from an [01 maybe?] dodge dakota to a dodge srt-10..and hes opening up another pizza place[may be open already]
just pay more attention to your surroundings and what seems to be busy and what seems to be taking your and others money. try to think about things you have never considered before.
another good idea that probably has low cost is open something like a ready ice. in my town theres probably 10 of these..you pay 1.25 and get a 20lb. bulk of ice or a 16lb. bag.....no labor fees, just stock the ice yourself. it's a good deal for the customer and over time will make you money.
probably cost a little more than 80k, but there is money to be made with having gas stations too.
what do you do for a living now? do something that u could use that to your advantage. my dad is a marriage and family therapist, he recently wrote his own book...it hasnt taken off yet but it's slowly getting there. he will make money from the book and become more famous--thus being able to charge more money at his outpatient office.
he could charge more around here though.like 15 per hour. and people would still pay casue there isnt one around here.atleast that i know off.Quote:

I've always wanted to do something similar. I just recently had an idea for a good website and I've already got a decent design. Seeing that not only has IA held the money you've invested but that you've met many new friends is reason enough for me to push my idea to reality. :goodjob:Quote:
