Buying a business and succeeding?

[ygtrhos]

Hey everyone,

I would love to know if anyone has bought a business and had success with it. ("4-10-100x"ed the business for example)

I have been seeing this as a recommendation on this forum and other places. But I would love to hear the nit-bits of it. The stories.

The difficulties, why people do it, why did you choose that business, can you do it cashless etc.

Just the facts. No mindset talk or subjective opinions (except people who have really done it).

Looking forward to read the posts! Thanks in advance.
