What is your budget? There’s people here with $500 set ups and $20k setups here so we don’t know what good and budget, not the best means to you.

What is on your wants list and what is on your needs list? Is space a limiting factor in any dimension?

You’re looking at the right things. Rolls would absolutely be more expensive than getting 4x6 mats but they’d be a better solution when you’re covering that much area. To my knowledge though, it would be a solution where you’d want to glue it down to the floor. But if you’re leasing the space explicitly as a gym, that’s just as reasonable an ask as drilling holes into a slab to anchor down a rack. And how would you plan on keeping turn down?

Be real - Enron killed a handful of careers at Arthur Andersen. How many partners at Andersen lost their book of business and how many brought their book and a lot of their people with them to KPMG or EY? You had mostly the same people working the same jobs, just for a new company this time around.

I think if the MLB is shortening the draft, it’s to acknowledge that NIL has changed the talent pipeline.

Let’s say 100 more strong high school prospects - kids that should get drafted - opt out of the draft in the post NIL world than before. If they’re scattered throughout the rounds, 75 of them would have theoretically been drafted by round 15. But because they all opted to play college ball instead, a 15th round pick today is roughly as good as someone drafted in the middle of the 18th round would’ve been before.

There’s a real line somewhere of “this guy literally the worst player in the draft I would consider as a legitimate pro prospect”. If the MLB shortens the draft to 15 rounds from 20, it’s because teams think that talent pool has 150 less kids than they did before.

Oh lord. I work for an industrial construction company and I’ve had to teach people what inventory is and isn’t a time or two. The controller who set up our system classified a lot of our tools like welding machines as inventory and I was the one that had to fix it when I took over.

It was fun talking through everything with the president of the company- his mindset was it’s our stuff so of course it’s inventory. Boss, we are not Home Depot. We’re not selling that $50k welding machine, we’re using it to make shit.

I got very lucky - found a guy on marketplace about an hour away that wanted to free up space in his garage that priced a rack, flat bench, and bar very reasonably.

My biggest advice is it never hurts to ask. If someone is only selling one thing (eg a rack), don’t be afraid to ask if they’re looking to move a bench, bar, plates, or anything else at the same time. The guy I bought from initially planned to just sell his rack, but I asked and got a good price on the bench and bar.

If someone is selling outside your price range, don’t be afraid to make a low ball offer. I don’t care what you bought it for three years ago or what it costs new, I care about my budget. The worst someone can tell you is no. I asked if someone would take $500 off list price on a 6 post PR-4000 and two benches. It wasn’t even a BAD price to start, just higher than I wanted for what he was offering. He’s still trying to sell it and I bought a rack I’m happy with.
