im only asking cause some people on here seem pretty successful, whether it being owning a business or whatnot… i still have a while before i get the money, and im just kicking around a few ideas to see what people can input on. id rather have people with experience to talk to on the idea
nothings set in stone at all, but since its gonna be awhile, its good to get the ball rolling. i wont jump into anything without THOROUGH research
Fuck owning a business. Buy real estate. Specifically, rentals. Use your investment to put a large chunk down, pay off mortgages with rent collected, enjoy free money.
How much money are we talking here? (If you posted, I must of missed it)
I’d go to a financial planner and explain to them how much you have, what you would like to do with it, etc.
I know of a couple people who hit lower lottery winnings like 100k - taxes, taken to a planner and said with $xx,xxx I want to see $x,xxx,xxx in ~5-10 years, and they can get you a way to do it.
I will just say this. Three years ago I thought I found a franchise that was a good idea. I thought being my own boss would be the best thing in the world. It wasn’t. When you work for yourself there is never a day off or even a weekend which gets really old when you are not doing something you absolutely love. Three years later it is a failed business venture that cost me and my family lots of money. Be very cautious with starting a new business. Your money would probably be better spent on other things.
There used to be a sickkk one in myrtle beach. Had like time trial shifter carts track, bumpter boats, slow and fast gokarts, and a slick track.
