re: how hard is it to buy into a franchise business

I agree certainly. But I'd argue outside of food starting a franchise in most other industries is just dumb. Food you have recipes and ingredients that are vital to doing well, ...

$150k maybe in 1998, today? You probably need closer to $1mil for most decent franchises.

Yeah I'm calling BS. If she had a copy of the receipt and had to get a new one, I'd certainly waive the late fee and be lenient.
But the entire reason to hold the receipt, is for reasons like this.
Let me guess, she paid...

Own something close to you. Its just a pain to have a vacation home far away, and expensive. My father in law used to have a place in Jackson hole which has no direct flights from the south. So a long day flying and expensive to fly, it was usually $500+ a ticket so anything I wanted to take our fam...

You mean camping OP? I'm not sure why anyone made this fancy word.
The problem with the south is that there's not a lot of public access you can camp overnight that's not by the road. Out west there's tons of National Forest you can just drive down a dirty road and camp, or drive offroad and camp...

This is where an air fryer is king. I'm not a huge fan of actually cooking meat in it, we do plenty of vegetables like asparagus, brussel sprouts, and potatos. But beyond that its really best to reheat.

re: Worm Farmin'
Posted by baldona on 4/19/24 at 2:23 pm
If you want it for your garden you really want a raised device that allows you to catch the liquid. That's just the really good nutrients. Otherwise in say a bed in the ground it all just goes into the ground and the bottom of your worm garden is just super fertile.
If you had a raised garden be...

re: Israel taking out Iranian nuclear sites right now
Posted by baldona on 4/19/24 at 6:50 am
Israel wants to look strong but they don’t want a war. They aren’t stupid. An actual war would not be good for Israel overall, as in major damage, financial issues, major deaths of their people, etc.
They likely just struck a bunch of military targets with little actual value to look strong and ...
re: What's the yearly maintenance on a houseboat
Posted by baldona on 4/18/24 at 1:06 pm
Your facebook is a trawler, not a houseboat. At least that's what it looks like.
Trawlers are more meant for covering ground with slow low HP diesels that get you going 7-10mph. Houseboats are more like a party barge not meant to travel really but to live on. Houseboats often have large HP gas o...
