$50K for a startup lawn business is ridiculous. You can tell libs have no idea how to start a business.
Let's see.

$2500-3000 for a pickup. Another $2,000 for a yard trailer. $3,000 for all the tools and equipment, sprayers, rakes, mowers, hedgers, blowers etc. Another $500 for seed, pest spray, etc. $200 for wardrobe. $100 for 1,000 flyers, another $10 for business cards.

Hire four kids to paper the area with flyers and knock on doors handing them out. Plus posting them on the area free advertising boards and Craigs list.

Insurance $1000. $100 for business licenses. What am I up to. About ten grand. Now deposit $2500 in business account at the bank. Hire a helper from the high school or college. forget about approaching dead beats hanging on street corners. Be sure to check their mouths for teeth, you don't need an meth heads screwing up your business.

Oh, and when a guy like Colo is nosy and asks what you make, tell him you are starving. You never divulge stuff like that to a stranger or potential competitor. :smile:

One additional comment about Romney's "plan" to create employment. When ask for specifics in one of the debates, he clearly said he could not give specifics until he had worked them out with the Democrats in the House and Senate. Now, people are claiming he has given specifics. More flip flopping or another attempt to airbrush history?
Yep, he wasn't blowing smoke like the president. Who still doesn't have a real plan. We saw version one these past four years.

$3,000 for a pick up? What about the motor? Buy that sepoarate when you buy the trans?

Seriously no $3,000 will buy a running pickup that will pas safety or smog
$100 for flyers? how do the flyers get out? Litter folks yards with paper?
$10 for business cards? You cannot have a straight face when you type this crap

This is an example of how out of touch the rich are when it comes to starting a business

There are websites that will give you free business cards Joe, I was being generous. And nobody starting a lawncare business needs anything more than a running truck to haul stuff with. This is a start up Joe, the Hispanics do this all the time and for less tan I listed. I'm going to bed for my three hours of Zssss. I'm beginning to wonder about you Joe.Fifteen lawncare in 2012. You have me shaking my head.

You all know, if Pat is correct, there is absolutely no reason to elect Romney to gain the 12 million jobs. They are already available. LOL

free, so everyone in the us will get free business cards...........zero, nilch, free.......................why would someone give absolutely free business cards away Pat?

Oh you forgot that they need a computer too in the start up costs ( to get the free cards)

Shake your head Pat, I did not set the price. My neighbor pays another guy the same and he has more lawn then me

Romney's agenda says "give families access to high quality teachers and education. Now, how does that happens when another part of your plan is to cut education funding?

Exactly. It's a list of " stuff we'd really like to accomplish as soon as we can figure out how to do it." The other term for it is "campaign promises."
