Update on my dump trailer rental business.
I've spent way too much time on the wrong things like my logo and website. I wanted a good logo to post on my website and on my trailer which took a while. At the end of the day the customers are contractors, your logo doesn't matter!
Week 2 of my dump trailer rental business.
- I'm already overwhelmed
It's sad to admit but I'm confronted with the reality that I really don't know what I'm doing and I'm afraid because of it. I keep finding myself afraid of things going wrong and delaying the first rental....
Dump trailers for rent PLAYBOOK - a gold mine if played right! 💰🚀
This is what I’d do if I had to start all over again:
1. How much to rent out? Any price works! ($200-$150-$100) You get bank-payback in 1-2 days. Rest of the month = pure profit 🤑.
2. Where to buy? Try
Week 1 of my dump trailer rental business.
- I can't find any other parking....
All self storage lots near me are full. I really want to park it at a church nearby but they don't have night lights nor any security. I wonder if getting strong trailer locks would be good enough...
@mhp_guy
Nice to hear more about your tree care business. I'm blown away by your playbook.
1) Start small, MVP, sub it all out
2) If it works and profitable, buy a company
3) $$$
Bravo... I'm scared to launch for some reason.

Things to do:
- Install airtags
- Install GPS trackers
- Order vinyl stickers (getting quotes atm)
- Get tire warranty
- Familiarize myself with the trailer. Take it out for a drive, walk around it, lift it, tarp it, etc.
- Look into solar chargers to keep the battery charged
@jchervinsky
Hey Jake, would it be possible for you to dive further? What's missing? What do you think should've been written? My understanding of legal tender (very novice) is that it HAS to be accepted.

Man watching this clip scared me. I dug further and found the original, the video you posted is doctored. Take a look at the original, I timestamped it for you:
@CoFoundersNik
Episode idea. Pick a random city (Broward County, FL), pick businesses listed for sale on BizBuySell, and choose which ones you'd buy. Go through the thought process, why you like it, what you'd look closely at during due diligence, and how you'd grow the business.
@BPD1776
Credit Union. Many of them have high yield savings account. This was an eye opener when I got an account with them at 18 and I haven't switched since. Seeing that interest payment monthly started a great habit for me

is awesome! They show you every detail about the car and most importantly, the price history of the car! Dealer refused to negotiate down to a price I want. I see they reduce prices everyweek. I'm just going to wait. Slowly coming together!

I paid $2k for both trailers to be delivered. Unstacking them was nerve wracking. Very easy to ask for bids on uShip, try it.

Thanks for responding. I'm having it shipped to a trailer dealer nearby. They're hot and cold if they can help me or not due to liability. I'm hoping to show up in person and convince them in person to help me

@NoRiskNoParty
's playbook
One quick note: a big thing missed by people is that creations/redemptions are executed at NAV rather than market price and so when market price deviates from NAV there is natural incentive to arb it. This is same whether cash or in kind.

what is the difference between Liquid and Lightning? Is one simply a product offered by Blockstream with institutional support and the other is open source development for average users?

I REALLY love this quote, I gotta apply it. I'm sorry to hear about your dad Mike but no one can time it. Don't get hung up on last moments and do your best to honor him in what you think is the best way to.
@AP_ArchPublic
> Reg M redemptions at Grayscale still being considered.
What would that look like? SEC has sent C&D, would DCG/Grayscale ask for one time exception to allow them?
@JoeCarlasare
Hi Joe, I'd like to hear about your macro outlook. I'm in the camp the market will start to crash as soon as the Fed starts cutting rates, which they said they will early this year. Do you disagree?

Yeap, last time I tried it wanted more information so I was waiting to get the decals done. Now that I got it done it verified me without going through the extra steps.
