How my $350 dog saved me $4100/yr +1,000% ROI 🐶 👇

@mhp_guy Know somebody that met this founder and the business aint what it appears to be 📉

A 7 figure business teaching 7 year olds how to operate backhoes: - 45,000 customers served per year - $25 per 2 hours, whether you operate or not - On ONLY a 3.5 acre lot in a mall parking lot - 30 pieces of equipment, bought new from Caterpillar - Had to close down on opening day due to overwhelming demand & things breaking Imagine grossing 7 figures doing something as fun as this? To keep the theme of a job site (and keep costs low) their gift shop is in a literal job site trailer. Their unexpected hidden cash cow? Insurance costs? So many nuggets of learning packed into this 47 minute chat! You'll have to watch/listen to my interview with Jacob Robinson, the founder, at the links in the 1st comment below to find out. Enjoy! This was a ton of fun. You'll love it.

@thekriskay These are all over Austin right now. They’re always stuffed with two engineer looking guys with their knees and elbows touching.

Cyber cab owners could net $25,000-$40,000 /yr, $TSLA also benefits from FSD subs + take rate. Buying a Tesla robotaxi is the new buying a fast food franchise, but with a price point available to everybody. $30k. More importantly, very cheap transportation for all.

@russellybarra This was a childhood staple for me when Pearland was cow pasture, Cinema 6 and Gringo’s

33 years ago today at 11:00 a.m., a defining moment in my life took place. I opened the very first Gringo’s Tex-Mex location in Pearland, Texas. I didn’t do it because I thought it was a great idea, especially since the property had previously been home to four failed restaurants. I did it because I had nothing else to fall back on. I didn’t go to college. I didn’t have any real skill set, and I didn’t even have a real plan other than to serve the best product I knew how to make and offer it at the best price possible. At 31 years old, I still had the drive and determination to succeed. Today, my team and I operate 24 restaurants, with four more in development, and employ over 3,000 team members. I could not have imagined what my future would look like when I first pulled the string on the neon OPEN sign and stood there waiting for the very first car to pull into the parking lot. I’ll never forget the gratitude I felt when one finally did, and I told myself then that I never want to forget that feeling.

@TechieTyrone @unsplash Glad you dig it!

@joaopfc How many nodes did you onboard from the queue? I’ve been sitting at 23 and haven’t heard anything or received any replies from you or @Dagnum_PI when I asked about this earlier - not trying to pester, but it’s very unclear what to expect or how to be sure that I’m onboarded.

Mandatory video to watch about pacaswap before we go live tommorrow!

@joaopfc @Dagnum_PI So for those in the lottery queue, next up is #21 yeah? When do you expect to onboard the next batch from the queue? Will we be notified via email when we're ready to be onboarded? Just trying to make sure I'm not going to miss any notification when it's my turn.

@Dagnum_PI Just for clarification we have onboarded the first 20 users on the queue, the 3 source nodes for the metagraph, some internal nodes for testing and some nodes from node team leaders.

~ 30 $SWAP Nodes have been onboarded 🔥 The queue list will be updated once PACASWAP goes live on Mainnet 🗓️8/27

@Dagnum_PI I’ve been in the top 30 of the queue from the jump, but didn’t get onboarded or any notice. Am I missing something here?

@thepatwalls Damn Pat, so sorry man…this is one of life’s sharpest knife’s. Cheers to all the good times that were had and a bond that will last a lifetime.

My silent cofounder, my best friend, I love you. RIP Demi 💔

@mhp_guy A lot of big blue collar money ripping through there

I'm renting a billboard for my podcast in Tomball, TX for $700/month. ~140k cars drive by it per week. An above average % of those cars are both biz owners & podcast listeners. I need 5-10 new loyal listeners/month to break even. I'll report back! 🫡

This dog has already sparked so much attention that there's a new token $Okami that has launched dedicated to jumping on the hype of his price tag and media craze.

This dog was born in the US although any information about the original breeder has not been disclosed. I've been writing and researching in the dog space for the last 2yrs and this is the wildest story I've seen. This dog is essentially being used for breeding and for spectating. Unbelievable.

What do you get when you cross a Caucasian Shepherd + Wolf... $5.7M - The world's most expensive dog. This is fkn insane! A 51yr old dude in India by the name of S Sathish is the one who shelled out massively for this "one-of-a-kind" breed. It's not just for the love, it's for a business...

Who can build this? Because whoever does could own the future of pet air travel. If somebody is building this or wants to build it please let me know!

Right now, people are already paying $10K+ per seat, but they’re struggling to find flights. The demand is there. The supply is there. What’s missing is the tech to bring them together.

People are paying $7K–$16K per seat to fly their dogs privately…and still struggling to find flights. Demand for private jet travel with dogs is skyrocketing, but the system is completely broken:
