A change is comming

Sometimes i wonder if i am too honest on these post. I do go into detail and try not to hold back. If i am lucky enough to develop a relationship from it i would rather it be from honesty up front, than the lies some people portrait. (not calling anyone out, I just know there are some shady people out there). This week i am finding is a little more like a roller coaster than most. In a previous post i mentioned i had bought a house, the deal went south, some people might end up homeless it was a nightmare. Monday i got some closure. After Months of grueling research and collecting data my attorney and i approached a state official with the matter. The state official seems to be in favor of pursing a criminal case against the people. So there will be some justice. I will probably never get my money back but the family will not be homeless so that was worth all the effort. I have been dreading going into my store. I am still having issues focusing on the task at hand. Seems like when we got broke into it affected us more than expected. With the new location and new name the business is very much in the start up phase. barely scraping by. I know if my business partner and i were on the same page we would be more successful but that is not an option. Breaking even just does not pay the bills or put food on the table so i must make a decision. They refuse to sell out. So I must either sell out or we will just have to close down. I cant afford to buy them out at this point but we are running out of time, money and options. I wish at times like this i had the support of someone else. America is the land of opportunity but it is expensive and tough to do it by yourself. I realize i am making some excuses but its the truth. I know ultimately only i can decide what to do. No matter what it is a tough choice... What to do... What to do...

My respect. I always thought, to men it is simpler in business. Personally I when it became difficult to do business, I sold everything. And now at the nights dreams motel and a parking shooting gallery. When I see big the car spirit borrows. If you aren't afraid to pass business sell everything. Also it will be simpler. Believe it so.

Mr Fixes,

I hope everything works out for you. I wish you the best
thumbs up thumbs up
couldn't you sell out then use that money to start up again under a different name ????
p.s i know nothing about business .
well that is a thought. I have considered that. but to sell out my partnership will not be enough to restart a new biz. The number 1 mistake of starting your own business is not going in with enough working capital ($). There are always little hidden fee's, taxes, licenses, etc. It takes 1-2 years for a business to become established. If you don't have some cash saved for the slow times your up a creek before you even get started
I suspect most business's, especially partnerships, go through stages like this in there early days, I had a similar situation many years ago, it might help if you make yourself as obnoxious as possible, that way your partner might increase his offer to buy you out, worked for me laugh I used the money for a change of direction & never looked back, good luck beer
somehow I don't think mr. fixes can be the obnoxious type even if he wanted to
