I'm losing money.
I want to be at scale now.
And I did do some research.
So I scraped every single iPhone repair shop in the country with some random piece of software I found online.
And I learned that a city of 100,000 could support about two iPhone repair stores.
And the city I lived in, coincidentally, had 100,000 people and there were no stores.
And it was it was a similar demographic city as Baton Rouge, where Louisiana State was.
So I thought, OK, 30,000 students, they're all going to get iPhones or smartphones.
There's no one here fulfilling this need.
I just knew like this will work.
This works in all these other cities.
It will work here.
And how much did you make from that?
I sold it a few years later for a million bucks.
Right at a million bucks.
Who bought it?
A private, just a guy that wanted to quit his W-2.
He had a six-figure job and he wanted to own his own business.
No.
No.
