Seems like all the good business ideas are already taken

[binö]

I've been telling him that for a couple years now

not sure if he is willing to work that hard though...and plus he start off at the low end doing bitch work taking abuse like i did.
is his constitution strong enough? unsure...seems like a lotta the younger generation don't want to get dirty or use their hands, and i think he falls into that category.
stuck in retail hell is where he is gonna be, foldin shirts at A&F or selling phones at verizon

Making money is all about having connections.

What connections do you have? Are they business connectinos or just poor people your age smoking weed?

Pretty much...I'd even let her sleep over...back in my captain save-a-hoe days.

Lol. Glad you figured out hoes don't want to be saved bro

Well... Glad you kind of answered your own question in your original post. You need to get your head out of your ass about pretending you will just start some business that will blow up. You are not inventing anything so stop with all that crazy talk. Even if you had a great idea you do not have what it takes (atleast right now) to ever successfully launch it. The powerwashing type job is one that is not glamorous and it will take plenty of work. That is the type of thing you need to start. The start-up costs are low and you would get paid for actually working. The amount of work you get will be based on your ability to advertise your services... meaning your ability to hustle and get the word out. From there your quality of work and ability to sell other services can make you more money. "Hey, it looks like your fence could be painted. I'd be happy to help you out with that"
There will be no fast money ever, get that straight! But will you listen? Right now I am trying in the starting phase of a new project. I am creating a record label and I know it could take years of work before we get anywhere and make any money at all. I know you have to put in your dues to get where you want to go. Here is one my partners songs I am starting this thing up with. ‪Ralph Berr - Make It Panic (Nervous Records)‬‏ - YouTube

Why is the concept of risk so difficult for people to comprehend? And it's almost always people with dependents that have this one-sided view.

Start a business, man, but be prepared to take losses that you probably can't eat. If you want to be a man and form babbys, then you necissarily cut off high-risk ventures like this.

Take responsibility for your actions and choices. You can't do a lot of things in life now; if that's unacceptable to you, then put the kid up for adoption or something.

Played football at a D1 HS with coaches that trained us well, I dont whine about shit. I get shit done, I feel way overqualified for these shitty ass part time jobs bro, I just need to catch a break

My felony gets reduced to a misdemeanor in September

Fuck I applied recently for an oil rig worker, and then again as a train elevator operator or some shit. Just couldnt get in cuz of the felony

I know there wont be fast money bro trust me. But I want to invest my money. Even if it means starting something small like a powerwashing business, then maybe buying a shitty house and flipping it, expanding the apricot seed biz into a nutrition store, eventually getting bigger and bigger.

I am just getting ideas now. I know I dont have the start up money for all this shit...

Bro I can make you some beats, I seriously have some sick ones you should hear sometime. I honestly could see lil wayne spittin to it
