Nice data there. Since I have customers call me from my site, it's hard for me to track. When we ask for more data (other than they looked us up on the Internet), they get a little testy.

LOL. And that's why you don't market time. I have a ton of training in Finance, and yet I don't consider myself able to market time. It's best to show some humility when investing, or you get owned. This is not as simple as plunging your toilet.

Corndog, focus on getting the customer to walk in the door the first time, and not for visits after that. If you are treating them right and giving them a good product, they'll be back. What are you doing, Internet wise?

Listen to this man. One reason I'm not on TV right now is that I want to go after the higher demo listeners on some of the radio stations. I'll max out my budget on radio before I move to TV.

OK, on the c-corp structure, because I flipped my 401k to the business without any tax penalty (usually over 50%), the government makes you go to a c-corp. I didn't have a choice, all of my investments were in my 401k (because my employer matched). I'm not the type to ask family for anything...

I'm starting to get bored and I'm not even level 10 yet.

I'm about half paid off. Given that I'm a c-corp, I pay 50% taxes over 50k. If I keep the debt, I'm getting writedowns on goodwill, depreciation and amortization. I'm probably going to flip back to a lower tax rate business structure later on. In other words, I don't want to make 250k and...

I've decided, after watching Star Wars 1 and 2 on Blu Ray, that I want to see a movie starring Master Yoda, in his younger ass-kicking days.

Not even just a little bit, I wish women were more like men. No homo (keep the breasts and vagina). I'm just saying that with a wife and daughter, I don't understand their line of reasoning most of the time. I'm not saying retail won't work, I just think that the next time I do a business...

Why does everyone seem to be picking retail? I thought retail was trending downward? Also, what are the % chances of getting your stool pushed in by a big corp one day? I purposefully picked a boring industry, as I've read that the more mundane your business is, the less competition it...

I am very pumped that Dec and January are typically the months we lose money, and we aren't going to this year. Sales are up 50% in December, and we've got almost as much work booked for January than we did all of last January. We are at breakeven in December (the last three years the company...

No homo. Post videos please.

I'm not even using credit cards. We never have, and I don't think I need to pay 3% of sales to the credit card companies. 3% sounds like not much, but considering the average business in the U.S. only brings home 5%, that is a lot. One day I'll switch. When picking a vendor, look also at...

I think it's pretty much implied that I was talking about good risk. I'm not suggesting you take your life savings and bet it all on green at a Roulette table.

Check Kelley blue book to see the approximate value of your trade-in.

That depends on the make. There is only like 1k in a Toyota, but I know a Porsche dealer that said it was 15k from invoice to MSRP. You can go online and find out beforehand, just keep in mind that the prices aren't always 100% accurate. They could be off $500. The last car I bought, I...

That's exactly what I said. It's getting to be par for the course that they sell the car at invoice, but rape you in F&I. People usually only argue the price of the new vehicle and what they are being allowed for their trade-in. They never argue with F&I. Dealers absolutely lose their shit...

If people are that nervous that their health is waning, they shouldn't be in equities. More risk = more return. It's that simple. If you can't handle the risk, you won't get a max return. I learned a long time ago, you have to take a "I could give two shits attitude." Especially when you...

I disagree. As Warren Buffett says, it's the weak hands that lose.

Yup, let the fund managers do that.

If you are in any sort of funds, you can assume they've already moved into defensive positions. That is, unless they are run by retards.

I didn't think about it until an email I got just yesterday. Dude started complainingbefore he's even interviewedabout how the work is too hard. The last two guys I've talked to have done this.

One day, I'm going to start posting all of the screwed up email replies I get from guys looking for work.

Two years isn't bad. I structured my lease so that I could do a ten year lease, but with one year renewable options. It wasn't because I couldn't afford it, it was we moved the business to an area and wanted to make sure it wouldn't hurt operations. But, I'll never forget when I was looking...

No homo. I want to see Morrow's ass.

For me, this still isn't enough. We haven't had a new tier for ten months, and we are getting more t4 content starting in early 2013. At the pace new content is coming out, it's gonna be one year before t5. Absolutely ridiculous! http://www.dcuniverseonline.com/news...t&locale=en_US

How have you structured the lease so you can bail out of it, in a worst case scenario?

We need more penises around here.

He usually goes to the Blue Oyster Bar, or the Manhole.

It's a tranny.

When you are on HGH, you need 4k+ calories just so you don't burn the muscle off with the fat. Anytime someone is like, oh, my diet is tough at 4k calories, it's usually that. Hell, I don't hit 4k calories on a cheat day.

I was there back in the day, and I remember Itzena being on the same server. Good times.

If Marvel and DC would give me access to their entire library on my Ipad for $20 a month apiece, I'd be all over that.

Every bit of that dialog is why a customer picks me over a competitor, or the customer's attitude at this time of year. We've had two different types of commercials this year, a funny one, and one with some dire music behind it. I'm sure we'll be going with the latter.

Here is a rough proof of the radio commercial I'm running (company name edited out). I'm keying in on people that have waited to do their work all year, and what they tell me. We are getting less calls, but the average ticket is higher. My average ticket is $762, but it doubles this time of...

20 years from now, I wonder what the industry will look like. I can still remember a time where every boy from the age of 5 to 18 collected comics. Now you talk to them about print comics, and they just give you a blank stare. One thing is for sure, is that Marvel and DC need to go all-in...

LOL

I'd also drink Shelley's period juice. So what?

Here's the thing. Characters aren't created like they used to be. They used to come from comic books and then move "upstream." So movies had a built in fanbase. Only now, no one reads comics any more. Who was the last character to gain mainstream popularity? Blade? He came out in the...

Surprisingly, I'd hit it.
