    What do do..

    SLOWLANE 
    Its a combination. I dont like what I do, the stress is a big driving factor to leave (deadlines, manager that is on my a$$ 24/7, toxic work environment). And the money neither one will make Fire soon. Not saying it is not important, but they are both in the slowlane sort of speak. I justed...

    GOLD! HOT! IDEA 
    Here is an interesting one, My mom tells me all shoe stores are dissapearing (Only 1 out of 10 shoe stores seem to survice over here atm) and she doesn't like ordering shoe's online, because she has to send them back if they don't fit. So I think there is a market to fill (people that don't like...

    Starting a pizza / pizzeria business, talk me out of it

    IDEA 
    Yeah everyone agrees it is good, and I am surely still improving my pizza game. But in this case I think its more like a "Luikse wafle vs Bruxelles wafle" to each their own. Nothing wrong with either, but you can still have your preference. But offcourse it is my goal to make a pizza so great...
