Investment/Business Help

[PEC]

If you had $150,000 to invest in some sort of business what would it be? I am tired of doing my current job and would like to try something on my own or with a partner.

Something that provides a service, not a product.

Milk or toilet paper

You could buy a lot of real estate with $150k and keep your current job or look for something that you would enjoy more.


Or if Hillary becomes pres. and raises the min. wage to $15 an hour, invest in tobacco and beer stocks!

Keep job, research & invest in stocks. Make millions off that, quit job, go fish.

I assume you're going to want some cash flow pretty quick. I can't think of any type of business investment that's going to provide immediate cash flow. I'd look at sticking that money in rental real estate properties and keeping my job until the real estate starts to cash flow.

This is what I'd do. Buy undervalued and/or distressed real estate and leverage about 5x.

One of those ice vending machines. Not sure on total investment needed but they always seem to be busy around me.

There is a guy I work with, he bought a "Discount tires" franchise for $150K, someone else manages it and everything, he keeps track of stuff at a distance.

There are several franchises that come to mind, my parents looked into opening a "Papa Murphys Pizza" it was $30K (8 years ago), low over head, no delivery drivers, no oven, just refrigerator, min-wage workers and some managers....

If it were my $150K, i would invest in real eatate, If you live around a large city, generally you know which "direction" its growing, go out a little further and get some land. Set up some type of low return on investment, moble hiome park, camp ground, lease to farmer, lease to hunters, etc. Even if it only makes 6% a year, thats pretty good, with low risk. THen after 10-15 years you might get a big pay off if the "town/City" grows that direction. If it doesn't you made 6%/year and land usually goes up 1-2%/yr so you can always sell later.

Bonus: if you buy correctly, you can hunt it while your investment grows...hard to do that with stocks, gold, silver, or what ever.
