Posted 06/12/10 09:21 AM Share Posted 06/12/10 09:21 AM Im in the same boat.....Sold my hydraulic hose franchise this month and new guy takes over mid January..... I was looking at buying a tilt tray with a forklift contract but it was sold last week as someone else thought it was worth more than I'd offered Im currently having a stew over what to do next....I don't really want to go back working for a boss either but if it comes down to it, then that's what I'll have to do... Currently researching businesses for sale..... Nick....I can really identify with the "missing the cash" side of things though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest XR09 Guests Posted 06/12/10 09:45 AM Share Posted 06/12/10 09:45 AM Don't matter if you work for you or someone else. In the end it's all for the banks, tax man and the bitch anyway. So whatever you do you may as well have fun.Think outside the square. Good money to be had in Laos at the moment. Mining, teaching, Fiber work. Working holiday... PNG is just to heavy right now and I cant see it changing anytime soon, but the money is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
