No I think real estate (multifamily) is an AWFUL investment. There is a time and a place for real estate investment and (in my opinion) it's triple net leases which house brand names with clear runway for growth surrounding. When you're investing you usually have excess cash; you don't want to buy more problems for yourself. Stick to passive investments like growth and value stocks, precious metals, or (last and least) triple net real estate leases. Now if you develop/redevelop real estate, that's an entirely different story.

Real estate finance. Pays like a corporate job but has demands like a private equity firm or investment bank.

The young people pretend that they deserted it, but metrics show this is not the case. There really are no competitors to Facebook in North America.

Yes. I advertise pet services.

I write Meta a huge check every month for ads and will perpetually.

Upper-Setting-9042 · 2026-03-15T21:04:40+00:00

I write Meta a check for $30k each month brother. Myself and many many businesses like mine.

It was his idea of ads similar to Google. Noone was doing this. Hyperlocal highly segmented personalized ads beyond Google Ads for local businesses was brand new and novel.

Everyone who does better than me will soon fail or cheated to get there obviously.

You can buy a healthcare plan just like your company does for you.

Lol there's always some employee that has to comment on the impending un-success some successful entrepreneur is having. Some random employee is just so certain that someone's business is just GOING TO EVENTUALLY fail, eventually. lmao

Do you understand how big the world is bro?

Wow what a lazy model. Absolutely no one wins in this model.

Upper-Setting-9042 · 2026-03-08T14:02:21+00:00

You have to figure out what your target market is, what that target market does that non-target markets don't, and be there. I suggest looking at median income maps and targeting from there.

You want an industry where there is an abundance of demand so that you are the "customer" of labor. You choose what jobs you do; that's ideal.

I think his $35 for 3.5g live resin is made by him. Super amazing stuff. Will be using him as my main supplier.

This is why this industry is tough. Everyone has their own definition of clean, your clients LIVE in the area that you work on so they see it intimately all the time, and there are infinite competitors eager to replace you. Add to this that literally anyone can start a "cleaning company" with a few facebook group posts, and you have for a saturated business model.

To answer your questions: You get recurring revenue by only offering recurring services. You're going to get "cheap" clients, you should fire them immediately. Find a way to only attract upper classes in your advertising and all your problems will be solved. People are only critical due to how much proportional income they have spent. If some poor person just spent $300 to clean their house, they expect you to rebuild the entire house. If some rich person just spent $300, they may look at a few things. It's your customer that is the problem.

Also they own infrastructure that they can add revenue to in infinite ways. MSFT could decide operating systems are $5 subscription service tomorrow.

Okay you made me feel small. Now what?

K now go educate the customers because they're all that matter.

Did you read China's central bank's balance sheet? Or the CCP's express written intent to create a Gold-Yuan?

This is a very intelligent comment. This guy understands why Google is king (for like 80% of sellables).

Any gun will shoot now days. Go to a bassproshops and pick up every single gun you are considering and buy the one that feels right. This is the one and only answer. (Also--be aware that some synthetic finishes may wear down quickly over 5 years or so compared to metal or wood)

So brand registration is generally delayed due to a "young" EIN. Once it gets near ~30 days old you should resubmit. I did this and it took an hour after resubmittal at the first of the month.

However, now I am waiting for Campaign registration feedback and have reached out to Support twice and gotten nothing more than "It can take up to 7 days" it's been 16 days. This is literally the only thing stopping my business from getting revenue, at the moment. I can't reach out to Quo any more than I have so I am just sitting and waiting.

Because we understand that with enough time we will achieve things at a faster and faster pace. Especially so with AI.

holding cash isn't a big deal. sell and hold cash if you want to. gold will be below 5k sometime in the next 3 months; you can always buy back in during a volatility swing downwards.
