in Chit-Chat
with the stipulation you had to work/ start a company and be actively involved in it...what would you do?

I would open a place that would help teach officiating for all sports taking care of a couple guys I know that have help mold me knowing they are in constant financial struggles and I would continue to umpire with proceeds from that going to send umpires to the different levels of the little league world series...

The charitable side would be run by a man and a woman that I know would make sure kids that needed help paying for the opportunity to play would get assistance.

    I would start up a therapy animal farm. Horses for the kids/adults to ride and interact with. Dogs for the kids to read to. Cats for lapsitting and cuddling. It would draw together my love of animals and my experience with the ability to help people who are physically, mentally and/or emotionally handicapped.

    I would start a company that does nothing but searches the web for things people are looking for.

    I know, goofy, but I'm a geek.

    I'd buy a bookstore and travel all over collecting books. And then Id open the store for only a couple hours a day for people to come in and browse, buy or just sit in read. The rest of the time I would read it myself. And keep people out. Because I really hate everyone when I'm trying to read damn it.. >.<

    I'd put into our existing enterprise, WgR Farms. Pay off the loan, lease some more land, get a two-bottom plow and a cultipacker, fix the machinery that needs repair, and get the block work fixed on the arena. A good bit would go into new housing.

    we would move to this little island we love off the coast of mexico and open a tiny 3 or 4 room hotel with a bar and grill in our backyard. we would distill our own whiskey and i would make craft cocktails and just a couple of amazing bites of food a day. my husband would open a small theater group working with the kids from the island doing plays. it would be magical.

    obviously i have thought of this before.

    I would split it up something like this
    25% to my parents
    1% to B/F have some fun money
    14% donate

    left with 60%
    5% would be to family
    so leave myself with 55% which first I would buy myself a new car
    and then possible buy a little apartment
    and the rest I would put into savings.
    Ive thought this through very well!

    if you start that company let me know. that is one of my extreme talents. i can find anything and can pretty much always find the best travel deal available.
