Dumb fucking business owners Anonymous Fri Feb 2 23:10:41 2018 No.7243085 [Reply] [Original]

Am I the only one who gets pissed when I see a stupid business idea? Not because its dumb but because the proprietors are so dumb that they don't realize that their business is bound to fail.

Example: there's a fucking lash boutique next to a specialty sneaker store next to crafts store in a strip mall in a town of 50k (fucking 97% upper middle class white). These fucking businesses will go under in a year, leaving the owners with nothing but debt and pain. I know some of you /biz/tards will chuckle and claim 'muh free market' and I get it, but I feel genuinely bad for these people. Their lives will be ruined in the short term and possibly the long term. Where the fuck did they get it in their heads that they were going to be successful with such a dumb fucking concept? They should have stayed happy wagecucking instead of fucking their lives up. Fucking idiots.

ya I know, I'm one of them too, but at least I have a shot at a lambo. What are your thoughts on these faggots, fuck em, or feel bad for them but still fuck em? Tripps decides.

idk, I used to flip Air Jordans and other nigger-tier sneakers and most of the people who would pay the 50%+ markup on them were wiggers from upper middle class families. I think you're right that it will fail though, I don't think I'd try to make an actual business out of it.

No idea man.

there was a shop here which you would go to and decorate your own cupcakes and buy all the decorations separately

I tried to go in there once just to buy a cupcake to eat and they said no, we don't do that. You have to decorate it yourself

They went out of business

Those businesses are straight up fucking retarded. A hair salon is a lot more lucrative and cheaper to run, since everyone needs a haircut eventually and some even spend a lot to get their hair to look nice. Nobody gives a shit about their lashes except a small minority of women. t. mom owns a hair salon and makes a fuckton of money off of rich people getting $200 hair treatments each
