Treat yourself. Get that Corvette. ;)

Wow. Now there's a perspective.

We signed a lease last December. We were told we could open in April. We're now hopefully going to soft open in January. Based on the projections within the business plan, the first six months of business should have gotten us $60k in revenue. Instead we got zero.

So I got that Corvette. I just had to give it to the building inspector.

Want another perspective? I think the fact that you're out that much and you're not freaking out shows just how good of a shape you are in. I think 2017 is gonna be your year. I really do. I can't wait to read about your great successes on here.

While we're talking money, I was trying to explain how crummy minimum wage is to a friend of mine yesterday. I did some back of the envelope math while talking on the phone and found out that a married couple of two working 35 hours a week each at federal minimum wage, for 52 weeks, will earn just a bit north of $25k. It blew both of us away and after I got off the phone I sat back and thought about things and realized just how lucky I really am in life right now.
