    tough tactics for tough times

    I know the real pros will be ok. This post is for the majority of us who have the habit of flying by the seat of their pants.

    Time to get real, and honest, with your self. I know because I have lived that way for over 50 years. Listen or quit now and save weeks of labor and money.



    You don't have a real business plan, a budget and, you most likely live out of the cash register (your pocket).

    You need to get handle on profit. How much is it REALY, WHERE DOES IT GO.

    You need to at least divide your take into 3 equal categories. 1/3 or less expenses
    1/3 household, 1/3 operating capital. Every penny you shave off of each category goes directly into savings for that Rainey day or emergency situations. If you don't do this you most likely won't be here next year. Thousands of fly by nighters and get rich quick guys have already disappeared. Don't be one of them. buy that lunch, cigarettes, or beer out of a Dailey allowance from household budget, not out of operating capital or savings.

    Hopefully some of the real pros will chime in here with better iinfo and tips listen to them. To those who don't, Ill see you at the next get rich game mcw.
