@ajtoofer

Are those taco bell menus current? you showed a nacho cheese Doritos locos taco for $0.90, in Michigan its 2.99.. and why i never goto taco bell. if it was $0.90 i would get 10 of them

Man you got suckered big time if it was branded and doing good it wouldnt be for sale most busy stations would cost you over a million plus to buy also your going to need to brand it if you expect to get fuel delivered to the station . the carwash id take a real good look at the pumps hoses brushes and id check your water storage tank it might need to be pumped . the fuel pumps will need to pass gouverment inspection and remember now your also dealing with the epa . before you bought this place did it ever cross your mind to find out why its closed why its for sale there has to be really valid reasons . the money your going to spend renovating this station just to meet city state and epa standards will hit the pocket book . sourcing your fuel is even going to be very pricey and your insurance oh man sticker shock coming . the best thing for this place is demolition decontamination then resell the empty land thats worth more then the buildings . any chance youd hire canadians also i might be mistaken but i think your required to have theoretical hours in a class room before your on the job training and also arent you required to have a health and safety card to even be able to work on a union site .

Good luck bro hope it works but that was a giant risk

The roofing business scares me for you. I’ve been a general contractor for over 20 years, this is a different beast from your other business.

When things go good, they print money, when they go bad, it’s fast and hard. All labor based, tons of management and liability, lots of moving parts, competition, and in today’s world, finding/keeping good workers is incredibly difficult.

Good luck with it my friend.

@UnitedStates.

Let’s be honest: without YouTube income would you really be able to live off all your “ventures?” To me this seems like degenerate gambling to create social media income primarily which I say: good for you. But after watching you since the beginning and doing simple math it seems more like gambling (specially without having any experience whatsoever in the field) rather than smart investment. In other words, for others out there without any significant YouTube income and that want’s to recreate this…YOU WILL FAIL MISERABLY. Thoughts?

Btw, not a “hater” just saying from another perspective.

@TheRm65

You've assumed a lot of personal risk here and apparently are looking for more. I wish you the best, but I think you've got a bunch of sleepless nights ahead of you. LOL

First of your videos that I've watched in quite a while. Having a hard time understanding why you would buy a roofing company in Illinois when you live in Ohio? Trying to run an operating company from two states away is a recipe for disaster (IMO).
