What gets me is not the over-optimistic naif trying this crap.
What gets me is even though I have _ZERO_ training as a loan officer, and know next to nothing about Horses, , Trucking , Coffee Shops or Sports Bars ( A quadri-fecta of stuff I don't give a damn about.) it's pretty obvious to me that all 4 a serious business where you have serious competition and where the owner and/or his partners better me very serious people with skills and talent.
i.e. Horses - unless you are all-in in the horse world (i.e. you know your horses and the whole ecosystem) , and/or your Stallion/Mare has a name like "Man o' War", "Sea Biscuit" that it's going to lose money like water.
Coffee houses: Have you SEEN the competition? Unless you have none for miles or some other sales gimmick your profit margin is likely =0.
etc...
Seriously. How can anyone with the IQ necessary to get the credentials to became a bank manager even take stuff like that seriously? I'm not that smart and I'm not in the business and *I*see it.
