They quote the job.

They carry insurance.

And then they show up and stand there and watch and make sure the crew does a really good job and make $20,000 in a two-day job.

by getting a sub and actually selling the job, putting their name on it, billing the customer, collecting the money, pay the sub and move on.

So is that sexy and exciting?

No, but are there roofers running around every town in America making five, 10 grand a day?

Yes.

We built our first self-storage facility six hours from where we were living.

Borrowed $2 million from a bank, spent $3 million to build a self-storage facility six hours away.

And now I'm in Athens, Georgia, which is another different city.

And people are like, oh, you're in the self-storage business.

Like, which one in town do you own?

And I'm like, they're nowhere near here.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, we didn't even talk about real estate.

It's been a chaotic process.

you know, three years in real estate as interest rates have risen, just total carnage in the business.

Luckily we've done some things operationally that, you know, give us a little bit of an advantage, but.

Because the biggest line item, the biggest expense for real estate investor, developer, syndicator, anybody who buys real estate and holds it and tries the cashflow is, is debt.

It's our biggest line item.
