Glad I'm here where I'm at and not in Portland! I've been so freaking busy this last week. First off, I have a problem with making car payments.....NOT that I can't make payments, but I'm saying I don't like doing it. My deal is, I don't like paying on something that has no possibility of making my money back. So, (this sounds crazy) but I bought another car, and I'm going to sell the truck. The deal is, my car was only 900 dollars. I know that doesnt sound like much of a car, but it's a 1999 Crown Victoria, old police car. It's really a good ride. I'm one for a paid for car, and I can work on Fords. This by the way is like my 10th crown Vic. So I'm getting my truck ready to go on the sale block. It sounds crazy, but no monthly car payment and 20 bucks a month insurance is great.
Ive also been working on a police boat for our local sheriff's dept. I do a little light/siren/radio installs for local people around here. I can do about anything odd! I was going to go into business doing that, but it frustrates me too much. And it's actually tougher work that it looks like. Nothing says I won't ever do it, or at least hire someone to do it.
Now, onto the Limo. Things still going well. Just letting advertising do its thing for me now. No hard times here! I'm going to get Jonathan (my friend and driver) and myself new suits next week. Not really much happening other than that.
As for what's going on about 2000 miles away, not my business. I just hope everyone can get along with each other from now on. Like I've said, I can agree if things were wrong, but there are two sides to every story, and the only people that really know whats going on are the people that were there. All I'll say is my car is nowhere near showroom quality and I still get compliments daily on it. And I'm not kidding when I say I do all that, and only for 75 bucks an hour.
Well, I'm still thinking about a second car this fall. I'm really talking myself into a 180 Lincoln. I still cant justify the SUV, like presold talks about. I'm not really a huge numbers man, but I'm a big "out of the red into the black" man. I wish I were better at numbers that I am, but I'll learn. I'm off to bed, ya'll keep it real!
This is my thoughts and actions on my attempt at being a successful limousine service owner in Western Kentucky. I hope its enjoyable and I'll update when I can.
