I know that, but you could turn that money into more money if it’s a good amount.

Knew of a guy that got into imports and exports in his late 30s. Latex I think. Later he changed again and became an architect before finally landing his dream job with a professional baseball franchise. It’s all about taking chances and opening the door when opportunity knocks.

Go hire qualified managers from Cane's and finance the purchase of each of your franchises through bonuses you pay them directly. Play golf, invest in little side gigs, fish, collect interest, buy rental houses etc.



^Your best course of action. We are in similar situations. This is my gameplan in less than 5 years

If you’re willing to relocate to the Scranton, PA metroplex there’s an opening there for an Assistant to the Regional Manager for an area paper vendor.

You sound like a good businessman. I think you’d make an excellent pimp.

PA is 2.5 years.
It has become quite competitive recently.
But, a great career choice.
