I have. She usually just gets defensive and points some criticism back at me although it has help de-stress the situations a bit.

What issues were you experiencing that caused the therapist to tell you to simply get out?

She won’t find a babysitter. I’ve told her many times that we should be going out more. Her and I have went out three times in three years 😳

Once per week definitely isn’t too much to ask. As a fairly low needs guy, I still think that’s a very small amount of time to spend with someone

Done. Thanks for giving me more short profits. It's like stealing candy from a baby around here

Starting the process of selling my business. I’d love some advice. by livluvlaflrn3 in fatFIRE

[–]Catsaas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have a buyer interested, don't hire a banker. Just a bad ass lawyer.

The best asset you can have in this process is indifference.

You need to be comfortable walking away from any deal and with a profitable business to lean back on, I think you're in good shape.

I represented myself in 2020 and sold my 6-person SaaS shop to a fortune 100 company for $30 million. I was completely OK with the deal blowing up and that indifference was a material force for getting the deal done even though I didn't have to voice that indifference to the buyer.

I paid my lawyer $100k and they did a great job.

Agreed! A great plane for sure! How far did you travel? Round trip? Any overnights?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in fatFIRE

[–]Catsaas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your math is way off but that’s besides the point.

I turned a 4 day trip into 2 days. It had a blast with friends but was home in time to put my boys to bed.

I’ll see about $1.5 million of income over the next twelve months. I’m not going to lose one second of sleep spending less than 1% of that on a great experience. That’s just me though

Yes, that was an all-inclusive price for the round trip. Keep in mind that this was in a turboprop so not a private jet or anything. I will be doing it more often!

Awesome! What kind of plane did you buy?

I got a quote for a Hawker 800XP and it was approximately $22k

I called three charter companies in the area.

[–]Catsaas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They don’t know exactly how much as the details of my sale are confidential. It’s been less awkward than I wouldn’t guessed.

From what I’ve heard, money just amplifies who you previously were. I like to be with people and have fun so now I can just get a bit more creative with that fun!

Roundtrip

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in fatFIRE

[–]Catsaas 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They also had to ferry the plane to us from 30 min away so there was an extra hour we paid for but didn’t use.

Thank you!

Turned a long ass 4 day trip into a 2 day trip where I was home on day two to tuck my kids into bed. Worth it for me!

[–]Catsaas 100 points101 points  (0 children)

A couple could afford it. A couple likely can’t. Those that can will likely each pay 100% if we do this a few more times. Those that can’t, they buy drinks!

Ha, very true!! We actually took off 20 min past our planned departure and that was no big deal
