I predict it will actually make cheaper products more favorable as there is a psychological hurdle to returning them

people will rush to return their plasma screen TV if it's broken, but not their $10 bottle of multivitamins

one school of thought is to intentionally sell cheap items because they are "impulse buy" prices and never returned, I am inclined to agree with it

usually what works best in life are the most pessimistic, cynical ideas dressed up in bulletproof marketing and smiling faces

purely curiosity and feel free to not answer, but do you have an estimate for your total buy-in cost and your projected monthly profit?

yes

buy in cost should be... up front about 3-5k depending in what order I buy tools, and another 3-5k in inventory

should break even in the first quarter

from that point I expect enough money rolling in that I honestly don't have to worry about being a doctor, just from the first two

on the order of 200-400k predicted, split between two people

and then we are going to add products as fast as we humanly can

Nice. I hope you succeed. That's rad.

I have several different financial checkpoints where I will start making lifestyle changes

50k = start looking and dressing how I want without regard to whether or not my school/profession likes it

100k = cease considering residency

200k = cease showing up

haha

fuck you money

...yes

I am working like a demon every evening to make this happen

because I am in maximum misery

it's funny how much I relate to that

what I hope to achieve is once I no longer need a normal job, to entirely detach from society for a period of about 6 months

and do ultimate neckbeard shit

my plan is a day of gym at dawn->music, RPGs, "foreign cartoons"->some kind of outdoors activity with family->great food and wild sex->sleep->repeat

just repeat that for 6 months until I remember what it's like to be a free man again

realistically it will be AM gym->2-4 hours of ecommerce work->nerd crap->outdoors->food & sex, with every saturday being an all day ecommerce work day for me

but who cares, as it now stands I only do 2-4 hours of real work a day and the rest is going to meetings and trying to look busy

Sex distracts you from gains

I already have all the gains I need

Get a load of this goy

I can shoulder press 200 lb and squat 405

I could in theory try to get even stronger, but what for? I'd rather have more endurance and flexibility

gains are really subject to diminishing returns

as much as I hate to admit anything good about crossfit, their "balanced athleticism across all areas" idea is really legit

That isn't exactly a revolutionary concept

Seems pretty obvious to me

*muscle confusion*

Seems like if you aren't an idiot you can make the cross fit model work well

as a business or a workout plan?

both
