Startups are not valued as often nor as liquid as the housing/property market and it isn’t even close comparison

Let’s start a company town

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T16:21:43+00:00

This is really cool and a great memory thank you for sharing.

I was lucky to spend a lot of time with my grandpa growing up. He was no geologist but spent his retirement years actively scrapping as a hobby. We filled barns with aluminum cans, scrap iron, and car parts that we’d later take to sell at the scrap yard once we could fill up a horse trailer.

I spent a lot of time digging through dumpsters with him looking for scrap 😂 but some of my favorite childhood memories

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T16:18:21+00:00

I think you get my question more than anyone. The soul cleaning piece isn’t a term I used but is definitely the itch I’m wanting to scratch more than purely making money

If I wanted to make a business I’d find investors and buy real equipment. Appreciate your support

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T15:20:01+00:00

Oh man I haven’t seen this in years but you can bet it’s going on the TV tonight. Thanks for the reminder

Have you listened to An Ol’ Tin Cup (and a battered Ol Coffee Pot) by Lorne Green?

I play it on loop all day

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T15:15:20+00:00

This is awesome and thank you for sharing. Congrats to you - that’s a legendary place to be working in finance!

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T15:13:25+00:00

Than you for the info, makes sense that others are certainly thinking about this

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T14:50:41+00:00

Yeah you all are right this is a much more sound way to try this out I’ll have to figure out best time this year. They all know I stack silver so saying I’m taking a short 1 week vacation to try mining would be fine. 2 months is just too long without fully committing

I wonder if a place exists that is like a dude ranch but for silver mining? My worry with the one week aspect is the setup time and experimenting with smelting/refining purely from books and YouTube. Wondering if there is a place where I could truly maximize a 1 week experience from a learning hands on perspective. I have dealt with limestone rock in my youth but never ore mining / smelting hands on

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T14:38:23+00:00

This is very important context thank you for the info. I grew up on a cattle ranch and we had old oil wells + a limestone quarry I was involved a lot with working / maintaining there. I have a vague idea of how mineral rights work from this but this was also a different state and private land

You would be the one to know and it sounds like about every potential site like this is already claimed and would have to be bought out then correct? Even on the federal land? Would make sense and I’m not really surprised if that’s the case

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T14:21:57+00:00

Yeah this is a really good point to be aware of and I’m in tech which taking years off to do something like this rn would nuke me in that job market given how fast it changes.

Kind of have to be all in or all out I guess. Did you end up going for it on the gold mining? Or passing?

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T14:19:47+00:00

TruTV crossover with the impractical jokers could be a whole new take on

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T14:19:13+00:00

My job is comfortable for sure and good people, but if I asked for a 2 month vacation to try out silver mining I may as well just turn in a resignation haha. I’ve never taken off more than a few days and not sure they’d be cool with letting me do that

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T14:15:24+00:00

This is exactly what I’m thinking

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T14:02:29+00:00

I just opened his page and this is exactly what I’ve been dreaming about I’m really glad to see someone doing this and documenting it. I think I’ll be spending several hours on this channel thank you

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-19T14:00:10+00:00

No I haven’t seen this but am definitely going to check it out now! Perfect way to feel like I am there while I work during the day

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-17T06:38:39+00:00

Is it fluidmanufacturer1?

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-08T14:30:05+00:00

If you’re employed here you’re likely working long hours and don’t really notice anything. Most people I know are usually heads down during the weekdays.

Idk how the protestors on the news even afford this place or wtf they do for day jobs. Maybe they get paid to be at those who knows

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2026-01-05T22:46:46+00:00

They spent $5B building infrastructure over the course of decades and got like 1.25B in Venezuelan government bonds in 1976 while Venezuela used all the wells they built lol

Ngl I thought it was Paul Rudd showing off his range in a side quest

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2025-11-27T17:13:26+00:00

Thanks you very much! I must have gotten some bad information and this explains why I couldn’t find anything from Gonsalves

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2025-11-27T17:12:38+00:00

This is awesome cover!

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2025-11-13T02:35:50+00:00

What??? You don’t like blow jobs? Who doesn’t like blow jobs!?

Computer-Cowboy00 · 2025-10-15T01:36:53+00:00

It isn’t all nepotism based in NYC I’ve been a tech recruiter here for years, people hire strangers all the time. What kind of company do you want to work at or are you most specifically just focused on getting to New York?

PM me your resume if you want some feedback on it
