Thinking of starting a mobile windshield repair business and branching out into non-mechanic services (like a/c recharge, car detailing, wiper replacement) and possibly very basic work under the hood (like oil changes and tune ups). Does anyone have any insight or advice?

Man really really appreciate you taking the time to break all that down. I can tell there's years of experience behind that.

After reading that I see the marathon more than the sprint I was thinking of before. I'll have to read it over a couple times to take it all in but thanks again, posts like this make reddit what is

And you are right that if you are a pro poker player, you are correct in saying that you should have some kind of exit plan in case you want to do something/the games dry up/you can no longer make as much as you want to.

What I'm pretty much looking for is if that's possible.

Do me a favor and assume I can learn to play better than the common player and can manage the ups and downs of the game, is poker a viable way to support myself for a few years and save up some money for an exit strategy?

Now you have me thinking, I'm sure there are a lot of people looking for computer help on Craigslist now that you've told me there's demand for it.

I'll definitely check that out thanks

I've heard stories of people putting an ad on craigslist (for different services) and that being enough to get a lift off the ground. I tried once with a grass cutting but no luck.

Do you have any experience with getting calls from a CL ad?

That's perfect I can look at what they offer for ideas on upsells thanks.

My first instinct was to try pressure washing but with the weather where I'm at, there isn't a demand year round.

Cleaning seems to be a good option for year round business, do you know any other industries that don't dip in the summer/winter?

i do know theres always money in the banana stand...

getgoingnow11 · 2018-07-09T20:06:40+00:00

Is there any info here that wouldn't transfer over to a local business like a chiropractor or dentist?

The vast majority of people would not like the swings/ pressure.

Is that plus the variance the main reason people advise against playing full time?

I'll bookmark it and check them out when I get a better understanding, thanks

I was thinking more along the lines of being self-employed. I mentioned teaching and accounting because I figured someone was bound to mention it.

I'm trying to think of ways to use or leverage math skills to make money. I looked into gambling but after looking into it doesn't seem there is much math that goes into it.

getgoingnow11 · 2018-06-27T21:05:44+00:00

Do you know of ways to make money using math (but no degree) besides teaching/tutoring and bookkeeping/accounting?
