    Here are 130 boring business ideas that I like to invest in (and you should too): contrarianthinking.biz/130bor...
    I spend a lot of time talking about which businesses it might be good to buy or invest in. But what about which businesses to avoid?
    Today we're going to talk about the worst businesses, why I (generally) don't invest in them, and how it all comes down to one thing: probability. What is the likelihood that the money I put in yields a return on my investment? And even if there's a return on my investment, how long will it take to see results? Is it worth your time, and mine? More often than not with these businesses, the answer is a resounding "no."
    In this video I look at the studies, crunch the numbers and explain why these are the top businesses to avoid. Have you ever invested in one of these businesses? Did you find success or failure? I want to hear from you, comment below!

      convention centers
      open 24/7
      space studio- 50,000 funding from the european space agency
      i dont know what nasa is proposing but they should at least match it
      tiny sats
      and other satelite companies on display is part of that criteria
      space hotel concepts have billions attatched to the and could be a showroom
      aswel as
      space food vendors
      its brilliant disaster
      i need a global innovation platform
      tour guides
      rob downy jrs footprint coalition - hes got a website
      plant meat ???
      vertical farming
      thiers new sea farming methods
      robots need an intervention
      so robot vendors
      robo chefs
      coffeee bots being designed etc
      the maker space is the most recent community platform and is kinda building these robots
      with a
      computer building station
      and
      craft lounge
      knitting
      these platforms become much more elaborate and have room for expansion and will take off on thier own and evolve into solution powerhouses
      recycling processes = boring
      until we look at spanish rivers over flowing with trash bags
      nasa wanna set fire to but i reckon we can design robots to fly through this
      aswel as oceanic robots
      thiers an islands full of plastic at sea the size of france with sea life getting tangled in it and i reckon i can storm through this
      parcel drone prototypes becuase none of them work yet
      passenger drones and traffic is another system thats gonna take years to figure out and probably needs a sector
      a sci fi med sector too were able to grow human hearts but the funding is small
      and we can amplify this
      super food recipes and vendors
      also superfood space food recipes
      so i just wanna unpack a a bunch of projects and project sectors
      which should point everyone and a.i
      in the right directions
      earth homes ??? i dunno but i think we could find out and house the entire world once and for all

    I operate four restaurants in my town. I use the KISS method.
    My first one cost me $50k to open. I bought used equipment. Went in a location that was previously a restaurant. Btw doing this I saved on build out… like the hood system… grease trap… fire suppression system etc.

      I did it and I was pretty profitable. It was my first business and all of the things that codie said I have experiencedor at least heard of them. However, I've learned a lot about all the adminstration work, since I did them by myself, which I consider a huge benefit. Especially when you learn that tax consultants are hard to hold accountable for bad consultancy or mistakes they did, it is good build up some knowledge in that space. However, regarding profitability, I was going by a Udemy course and the recommendations in the course - going by numbers, choose products that are cheap in shipping and in a certain price range, look for products with bad review and make it better. In the end I choosed to close the business, because I want to leverage my skills, since I'm a software engineer. Also the fba business felt pretty boring and annoying.

      It’s funny how many salty amazon sellers get when someone that actually has a background in running multiple businesses tells them that. I do eBay but I have a service based business and the amount of obnoxious amazon sellers I come across on instagram is hilarious, a lot of them have self Inflated egos when it’s like bro you’re piggy backing off someone else’s brand. Most amazon sellers wouldn’t know how to start their own business let alone run one if amazon shut them down.

    Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for. Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. "You're not going to remember those expensive shoes you bought ten years ago, but you will remember every single morning when you look at your bank account that extra 0 in there. I promise, that's going to be way more fun to look at everyday", I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life

    @michaelzumpano7318 Год назад +5

    Love your videos. You got mad wisdom! I grew up in the retail men’s clothing business near the SF bay. One store supported three families… not an easy lift. Well, it wasn’t such a bad business in 1958, but by the mid 70’s major shopping-mall chain stores started taking over. Every season (there were six, early on) we would have to figure what was hot, what to dump and how we could compete with the chain stores. 2/3 through each season we would run a deep sale of 30-50% to clear the shelves. Trouble was, people waited for that to load up, and day-to-day sales depended on birthdays and the guy that needed an outfit for an event. We dominated in mid-priced suits (until Men’s Warehouse came along), formalwear (until they opened formalwear shops in the malls), and high-end disco (yeah this was a long time ago). Disco died and for the next twenty years our profits came from law enforcement uniforms and accessories. We closed before the year 2000 and made more money in liquidation than we had made in many years. My grandfather, who started the business in the early 20’s, drove inexpensive cars and put all his free cash into real estate. He died at 93 a happy multi-millionaire. Retail is like climbing Everest - there’s a formula for it now, but still, it doesn’t always work. When it works, like the Dutch Bros coffee kiosk that hit town recently, you make some tree. But even then, it can be short lived… 3 more Dutch Bros with separate owners are opening in our town this year. But the car washes, postal stores and laundromats just keep cranking, so there are a few opportunities and you already did a great video on those. Keep the lessons coming, we all need them!

To my understanding this just proves how much we need an edge as investors because playing the market like everyone else just isn’t good enough, we just need to hold onto our hopes and wait to see how things turn out because market movements are almost always unpredictable.

    My friends and co workers always say real estate is the worst but personally real estate isn't all terrible honestly, but it's not as profitable as stock investments! Many seasoned investors understand that an investor must be both a dividend and a growth investor. For instance, if I managed to make a 1000% gain on Tesla and then pulled 85% of the profit out and decided to invest it in a lot of more stable dividend stocks like CVX, I would say diversify, but also use those growth opportunities to build capital to invest in dividend payers (or in cash flowing real estate). This is how I made my first million, and I also use an FA, his name is James Fletcher Brennan. Best wishes!

      Franchise is probably not the best. Depends on your location, which franchise, what your target is for people, what’s your goals . It’s not easy to run a gym. Especially if it’s 24 hours. Lots of cost ya may not think of and the. Also if you purchase all your equipment at one time or if your contract through a franchise. People will spend hundreds in a weekend to destroy their body but don’t wanna pay 40/50 a month for a gym membership.

      I quit and went back to my warehouse job, and was working a second part time. I was making much more money and had a lot more free time. And made some friends. Just a little tip, the lot lizard banging on your truck door, is not a friend!

    I had a retail Bead store for 27 years - about 2500 SF, sold over $2 million yr - that's like $800 per sq foot? That's actually higher than Nordstrom. Sold a lot of gemstones I bought in India, high quality jewelry making supplies & precious metals. We also taught jewelry making classes every day. Decided to close in Covid & have been online since and it's never really been the same. It's not the same high touch, impulsive, high service business anymore where all the sparkling things call to them. And I miss my customers & helping them making something gorgeous. I go back & forth about opening back up again. But at 55 I think my retail days are over. Though I do entertain the idea of making an online course on how to open a successful retail Bead Store. (hint - say no to patchouli - think Wholefoods, not Walmart) Love your vids!

    I have a dog grooming salon. My profits depend on how much I work (sole groomer with a few part time bathers). I typically make about 40-60% profit. A typical day I make $350-800 minus overhead, which is fairly low. I want to move to my own property and add boarding and retail space. While I could probably get a loan to do it now, I think waiting a few years may be a better option.

  • @m.kemaloozcn5454
    @m.kemaloozcn5454 Год назад +20

    I don't consider renting passive income unless you have professional property management. Most people who rent don't count their time and effort needed just to make a tiny return on their massive investment. For example, you invest $599,000 to buy a second home and rent it out for $3000 a month. Let assume you are cash flow positive on the property and you make $1000 a month or $12,000 a year. What would your annualized return be? 2 percent on the entire amount. Now, you can argue that your return is much higher since you only put down $120,000 on the property. However, you are on the hook for the full $600k regardless of what the future FMV of the house is. Furthermore, people assume that their home will always appreciate in value however, this is a false assumption you can make. In the best case, you will gain some capital appreciation thanks to the central bank increasing the money supply, however, if inflation heats up, you can see your property actually start to lose money in real terms. This is because there is an inverse relationship between housing and nominal interest rates. The central bank will attempt to slow down inflation with higher interest rates and curb lending. We haven't seen inflation in a big way but we can see all the massive stimulus money that the government is pumping turn into inflation while taxes will be hiked to pay for all the COVID spending, your best choice is to look into *VRI TOKEN* Its more profitable.

    VERY well done ! I say this with 40+ years in mortgage finance & banking working with credit bureaus. Different models and parameters are used by different industries but *VRI TOKEN* info is pretty much universal. If you're trying to max your credit scores, there is a happy medium between too many credit cards and none. Too many cards with zero balnce may actually hurt you in some cases. Even if you do not use them, you have a potential. To always pay cash & still have cards doesn't help your scores as well

    completely agree. I live in Mexico on a Caribbean island of Isla Mujeres (i.e. tourist driven business) where my husband owns a restaurant in his grandmother's old home. Super authentic, great food. However, i believe having a restaurant is just an antiquated model. "Let's spend a bunch of money to get ready and hope we get a few tables." Makes no sense, BUT via somewhat of a flywheel approach, I have an online marketing business where I market vacation rentals that include concierge services so when we market for the restaurant we are 1) marketing to tourists who are actually on the island and that we have a relationship with because they booked their rental through us, 2) we work with other tour operators to promote their businesses so they return the favor and send their clients to us and 3) we market "Dinnertainment" chef services and hire the restaurant for the work. This part of the business has scaled 6 times over the last few years. Dinnertainment is a unique product and while we are no longer the only game in town for chef services, we are the only Dinnertainment experience. AND we have better systems and processes in place. But..I still agree with you. It is just a lot of complication to make it work. Would love to connect. I already subscribe to your newsletter.
