To any club or school that hired AJ Ferrari for a wrestling camp or clinic and can’t get their money back from him I will gladly come do a camp for you for free if you shoot me a DM.
@StrongpointRich I appreciate you sharing this. Intel on the economy from people in the trenches that are highly incented to pay attention to these things is valuable for those of is trying to determine what is happening.
Just met a guy that makes $125k/year cleaning residential grills.
Quick story:
I've got a built-in outdoor Coyote grill. Those things are a bear to clean and maintain.
So like anyone, I googled "Grill Cleaning"....and John shows up. The grill cleaner.
Quoted me $395 to do a full "back to new" grill cleaning.
Here’s the conversation:
-----------
me: seems steep john
john: it's probably a 5-6 hour job if you do it yourself
me: i don't want to do that....how long will it take you?
john: probably 4 hours since I have all the gear and the best cleaning stuff
me: hmm...how many of these do you do?
john: do 2 a day during the week, sometimes 1 on saturday mornings
me: and these are all $395?
john: yup, at least, depending upon size and brand
me: <doing math in my head> so you make over $100k per year doing this?
john: i take 8 weeks off a year, so it's around $125k before small expenses
me: do you spend any money on ads?
john: nope
me: do you have a shop?
john: nope, just a van
me: how's consistency and repeat biz?
john: very consistent, i get people on annual maintenance plans so most of my business is just pre-booked rinse and repeat
me: not a bad gig, john

There are so many ways to make money if you're just willing to take on projects that other people don't want to do.
John is just another example.
He could probably scale this thing, too. Has a huge book of repeat business. Trust with his customers.
Could probably bring on staff and scale into another home care item or two.
Or he could just keep it simple, make $125k, and live a low stress life.
Nice gig.
Make sure they're fully informed and believable. Find out who is responsible for whatever you are seeking to understand and then ask them. Listening to uninformed people is worse than having no answers at all.

@realEstateTrent@jtfriederich No, but Fidelity is painful also. Have to roll on the actual auction date. Maybe there’s a way to schedule it but I haven’t found it yet. Also, to set up money that’s in an LLC has additional friction.
NBA Jam had hidden code that made the Chicago Bulls miss last-second shots against the Detroit Pistons.
The creator was a Pistons fan.
So if the Bulls tried to win at the buzzer against Detroit, the game quietly sabotaged them.
Petty coding at an elite level.
