How many here started their own company?

I’m so intrigued by the restaurant business.
I work with them on a daily basis setting up new places and some work 80hrs a week making 60k and some work 50 hrs a week making a million plus.
The private investor vs the “owner” you see everyday type and the I’m tired of working plant life I’m opening a restaurant type.

Forestry mulching / land clearing.....just started it up last month and I’m doing pretty well. Initial investment was pretty large, but now that I see I’m going to be able to stay pretty busy, I’m much more comfortable with it. I’m hoping to be able to buy a new mid-sized excavator in the next 3-4 months. This will allow me to do a broader range of work, not just mulching.

Ran into a deal in 2012 where I could buy trailer loads of steel tubing for pennies on the dollar from a mill. Flipped metal for a few months before I realized I needed to learn how to weld. Got on YouTube, bought a Hobart 135 used for $100, and 7 years later I'm not flipping tubing anymore but still rocking and rolling on the fabrication side. I also have a custom skeet shooting trailer and a dump trailer I rent out.

I owned a little trucking company for a few years, hauling cows. I sucked at it, sold everything, almost went bankrupt. Me and the bride ate mustard sandwiches for a couple of years until we got out of the hole.
I am thinking about starting up a small business as a motivational speaker, if you know anyone looking to book one, let me know.

The company I had worked for the past 17 years closed the doors at the end of May this year. I have been doing hydrtoraphic dipping as a hobby for a little over 4 years now. Dipped a few football helmets for a guy in Kansas City that would eventually get signed by the pros and sold off as sports memorabilia. My name got passed around pretty quick to New York then Florida and finally to a dealer in San Antonio. Now I'm doing production work decorating the helmets! Cool thing is all the new and old pros signing them. I'm not getting rich but it's more than paying the bills and I'm walking to my shop to do the work. No more driving to Houston!!! Hope it lasts about 5 more years.
