I quit my $250k finance job at 26 to start tanning salons | Will never push a newsletter or try to monetize this
Joined January 2023
Day in life of tanning salon owner making 7 figures. 9:00am - salons open, wake up and check cameras to make sure everywhere is open. 9:30am - run, 20 miles per week average . 11:00am - arrive at salon 1, chat with worker, check the rooms are clean, work on my computer for 2.

Most common DM I get:. “Hey man love the account. Do you think tanning salons are good for passive income?”. A broke person that’s only interested in passive opportunities is morally detestable. You should try to max out your active income.

If you are under 40 you MUST get assets as quick as possible. The bill passed to increase the deficit and debt payments are already 30% of the budget. What happens when it’s 40%, 60%, 80%? . 2 options:. 1) Raise taxes to infinity (not going to happen) . 2) Print money to infinity.

I used to think this too. Then I did a full demolition of a tanning salon with a sledge hammer, sawzall, and drill. There’s a reason we invented desk jobs.
While it has obvious downsides, I'd take this over a cubicle and office chit chat 100%

Whenever someone cancels their membership, we get an auto-generated email. Normally, my manager sorts it and updates the customer profile. She’s on vacation, so I had to do it and it sucked. So I built a Gmail automation in 5 mins. Now it’s instant and nobody ever has to touch.

Rental car, 1 hooker, Airbnb, fake watch. This whole formula only costs like $5k. I’m not buying any course unless I see: . Private Jet, Courtside Seat, Yacht with 5 hookers, Cash Briefcase. At least spend $30k on your marketing guys.

I watched every Steve Varsano video and he’s one of the greatest salesmen ever. Steve is the top Private Jet Broker and sells planes worth up to $200,000,000. Biggest takeaways:. 1) He is extremely harsh. In the video he says “you are asking the wrong questions” . It shakes you.
How much money do you need to make to comfortably own a jet?

Google tasks is the best for this .1) Has an app and website so you enter tasks wherever and they go to your desk. 2) Allows recurring tasks that automatically show up in your to do list. 3) Allows multiple lists and easy to drag across lists I keep 3 lists open . Today,.
Serious question:. What tool do you use to track/manage your to-do list, and easily add to it as new items arise / pop into your head throughout the day?.

Never start an email with “just wanted to” or “just checking in”. You are showing people you don’t expect to be taken seriously.

Every commercial broker I call starts with . “Maybe I can show you the place tomorrow but we already have two offers from other tanning salons and they are above asking” . Meanwhile the place has been vacant for 2 years.

Interviewed someone without a college degree today . White girl with barista experience. “Tell me about your work experience”. “Is that the job that I’ve been having or the other jobs that I had?”. Sticking to college degrees from now on.

This is slightly exaggerated but everyone in finance has had this conversation at 1:30am. It’s extremely emasculating to sit there and take this shit from another man. This is why I don’t accept investors and will never work for another man again
