Carwash business okay pa ba?

The thing is, you used dehumanization in a wrong context here. How can you say that the threadstarter is foregoing his true potential by being an entrepreneur? If we look at it philosophically (as you mentioned Karl Marx), what is his true potential? Nobody knows. Not even he knows. Is it humane to go travel around the world? Not necessarily. It's a luxury but it doesn't mean you're being inhuman.

All I know is that everybody aspires to life without financial troubles. Maybe to the extreme of aspiring to be a future billionaire or maybe just a dream of providing for his future family. For whatever it may be, a practical allocation and capitalization of your current resources is important.

Wala naman sinabi this would forever be his business. Most people simply love a sideline here and there.. which isn't bad per se as you build up work experience here and there but in the case it becomes his primary business, then it isn't bad at all. I'm pretty sure the likes of Meguiars is enduring and rakes in more revenue than most of our companies here in the Philippines. Like I said, any business that's profitable is worth investing in.



Well, aggressive tone si Foresterx.. but I can't blame him nor you for that matter because that's his opinion. A Euro-trip isn't bad at all.... heck, majority of my wealth is invested in Europe (I love crises) so I wouldn't call it downright worthless. Pero ano difference ng EU sa Philippines? The fundamental proponents of being successful is the same NO MATTER which part of the globe you go. Philippines? We have Henry Sy riding on his Maybachs naman diba?

I study business management to clean cars... so what? Ayan yun masama na stigma that accompanies some of our so-called "elite" (which my family is part of financially-speaking). Holding a degree doesn't give you the right to look down on low-paying jobs -- heck some of the most successful people in the world haven't even finished college. Want an example? Take Wayne Huizenga who founded Waste Management Inc. -- who literally worked at a garbage collection company.. he's uhh... founded 3 more companies that was included in the Fortune Top 1000 companies?

There's nothing wrong in imposing your greatness to your grandson. If your grandson thinks you set the bar too high, then something's wrong with your grandson's personality. Set him up right to be successful - think positive and that there's nothing you can't do. Wala naman correlation ang success ng grandfather mo sa success mo eh.

eto mga gusto ko sagot eh. intellectual

i still have the machines, 3 of them worth 2M, nakatambak lang dun sa isang condo ko. I rarely go that condo kasi pag nakikita ko yun mga machines eh nakikita ko failures ko coz I only bought those machines to impress my dad sa laki ng kinikita ko dati pero di ko feel talaga mag-business sa printing eh kaya hayun tinambak ko na lang. sobrang baba pa nga ng counters noon eh tipong slightly brand new pa.

minsan nakita ng friends ko yun when we picked up something there. bakit daw ako nagsasayang ng ganun? eh wala eh di ko feel eh. tapos hinayang sila, eh di sabi ko bilhin nyo, tapos tumahimik na sila.

etong lately nag-gym ako for the past 3 years, I have lived my life exactly the way I wanted. I have good body, and I have hot friends, and I had a very good social life. eto ang life the fullest ko tapos dagdag pa na ive been traveling around the world these past few years.

so yun, yun ang sinasabi ko. If I only went to Europe earlier, I wouldn't have bought those machines or started businesses that yes, it may promise of good return but will eat me up inside. yun kumikita ka nga pero full of emptiness naman.

kaya yan carwashing biz, for me it's the lowest of the low. eh yun mga machines na yun, a lot of people look up to meby being to able to pay for all of it, pero para sa kin di pa din achievement yun eh eh

in the end, ang business dapat it will keep you spirits alive, hindi yun pera pera lang. what's money anyway. by being fit and healthy, yun mga tabatsoy at masisiba dyan ang definition nila ng being rich is to have 100M. ako kahit 5M lang ok na, dami ko na magagawa pa sa buhay ko. and I need not toil myself each day sa work na wala naman point if it's not developing me to my truest potential

this year, biglang ako binigyan ng 4 credit cards with 500K each limit, na-refer ako nun isang credit card na pinag-tripan ko lang yun credit to cash facility nya. so these 4 banks call me from time to time, if they want me to convert my limit to cash ranging from .80% to 1% per month no collateral, no processing basta ibigay ko lang daw bank account number, and they will transfer the money.

imagine that, dati sa business sa 400K na capital ko, nagawa ko kumita ng 100K / month. or 25% return. tapos eto 1% lang tas hindi ko pa pera. pero bakit ganun tamad pa din ako mag-business or the thing that you call entrepreneurship. for me entrepreneurship is just a mom and pop business, easily volatile and easily exploitable.
