My brothers wife's parents run a pizza/Italian place.. it's an hour from their "estate" in the hills.. they work 12 hrs a day 6 days a week and BANK!!

  595 a month is a bargain!!

Hell yeah, I would have jumped on it !! Despite having to travel an hour! But just my luck.. There voice mail says they are out until the 25th !! If it's still there i'm going to jump at it.. They have so much marketing already done, and in a perfect location, not to mention all ready to be just set up and ran !  Not sure if i'd be able to keep  the business name, but not sure i'd want to .

I am really starting to entertain the idea of getting into a business that someone left due to whatever reason , or something that perhaps needs  an overhaul... I hope I see more opportunities like this..

My same career goal as well. I have been calling ever local successful business in my area and offering them $1000 cold hard cash to sell me the business. However, I would require to see the books to be sure this business is making money hand over fist and the owner just got bored counting all their cash. There are some very lucrative businesses on the other side of my city, but with gas prices the way they are today I think I will stay to my own block thank you very much.

I question my screen printing business everytime I have to deal with an A-Hole which is often.

Open up a Skate Board shop. Easy money...

Start a fishing charter. Just take people fishing all day. Sounds like a good deal to me.

Good call.  I do have to agree with Pierre, never have I worked so hard, for so little money.  Although, come to think of it, I've worked here and Wal-Mart...I don't have an extensive employment background.

My employment history is the Marines and screenprinter.

Sometimes I honestly wonder which is tougher.
