You are right on bro. If I made all the money people, including many employees, thought I made over the years I'd be a zillionaire and long ago retired. It's not how many million you bring in that matters to a businessman; its how many penny's you keep!:wink
Did you get a 200xs?
thanks for for your input, but your in the water on your commentary. lets see ,people go into business to make money? yes correct. however if your not makin boats your not making money.next ,a few extra thousand ,yeah i got it . as far as knocking them ,i am not .as far as him being the only one who knows how long it will take to tool the molds and build a somewhat rigged boat ? your wrong, i know cause i talked to him about it. the turn around time on 4 boats was surprisingly less then i would have thought. as far as what makes financial sense for a business ? its production!!!!! dont tell me anything about business . i used to own 3 retail franchises. i have had over 35 people work for me at one time.in all my years i never had to lay anybody off!!! you state "when the economy was bad? its still bad!!!!! he isn't making near as many boats as he used to. he told me himself he is a "custom shop". what do think i am trying to do !!! put him out of business by buying a boat and by trying to get 4 orders.i know for a fact i got 2 orders.if he dont want to build the boats ,then the best financial decision he could make would be to sell the molds. having his employes do odds and ends and cutting them to a 4day workweek is great for them to earn a paycheck ,but i bet they would rather do what they love to do and what is gonna bring money into the company-build boats.i got a guy up here that could build em. maybe i will talk to him about buying the molds. boy that will sure piss off alot of guys on here:big grin so here is post 106
Here's a friendly piece of advice for you... I think its time to "put up or shut up." Take some of your "self proclaimed business professional money" and buy one... hell buy two! Then you would have a total of 3 orders and would get a great deal...
+1 - just get the ball rolling. Pay the extra "G" or two. You'll be a legend in the Allison community if you can get the 2013 XR2002 rolling.
I think Obama will become a life member of the NRA and recommend the end of welfare before he sells a mold, ESPECIALLY to his fastest boat!!!
really not gonna get into or apologize for what i have done right in my life and for the decisions i have made that have paid off. i am still a simple blue collard ,middle class man. content and comfortable.as long as i make my own choices and dont listen to impulsive advice like that ,is why i am able to hold on to it. but if i was a 20 something think i know it all already i might just do what you said to do. but one thing? how does buy one ...hell buy two !!! add up to three? wouldnt that still be 2? so you want me to give them money for three boats and only get two. here is something somebody once told me when i was in my twenties i never forgot it " if you dont open your mouth ,and you dont say anything ... people wont know how stupid you are " .. you can choose to reply ,which you will .i know your an emotionally driven commentary type young man,but really is it necessary .. your comment above was already unnecessary and needless and pointless. this was a thread ,for the purpose of getting a few boats built thats all. so lets drop it.
finally a comment that makes sense!!!!!:at the bar
jeff , excellent X2 . dont scratch my boat :big grin
