Does anyone have any ideas I can pass by him that would be good here? Something besides the obvious Golf Carts, Golf Clubs. There must be something out there that is missing here that even Amazon can't fill. Think outside the box. Thanks
I was in my own business. When, people say think, wow you had your own business, the reality is, the boss is a fool but you cannot say so, there is no hiding anything behind his back at the water cooler. On a typical job 40-50% of you income is benefits. Self employed, there are no benefits. Add to that the fact that you are on call 7 days a week
24 hours a day. You can make good money. You can also loose your investment.

Far as no competition, the reality is if there is no competition there is no business either.
