"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

What are everbody's thoughts on buying an established business?

Particularly if you have little to no real experience running a business?

Is it a good alternative to starting one if you have no idea where to begin and good capital ($100,000-$200,000 free and clear.)
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Dude, you should never buy anything (especially investments) which you don't understand.

Alright, that advice will cost 'ya $100,000... You seem to be loaded... :p

Pros-

1) You can easily leverage the business from an existing owner. most people expect to only put down a percentage and the owner holds a note for the rest. Conserve your cash! you will likely need it.

2) Training. Especially if you have never ran a business before

3) Proven concept. Less risk.

Cons-

1) A business owner can manipulate the books to make a buisiness appear to be more profitable than it is.

2) You will pay a premium for an established, profitable business.

3) you don't get the satisfaction of creating something from scratch.

Business is tough and it's a huge responsibility. I wouldn't recommend making a commitment until you know what it entails. Start small. you might find out that you love it, but at the same time you might hate it.

Remember- it's MUCH easier to buy a business than it is to sell it. Keep that in mind before you commit to anything.
