I do a lot of gardening and I mow like twelve acres. It’s the bee’s knees for moving stuff like firewood or stuck trucks. My back doesn’t hurt like it used to. I do driveways pro bono when the snow is bad.

We were looking for a lawnmower and I kept mournfully staring at the “real” tractors and my wife was like “just fuckin buy it. I don’t want to hear you bitch about not getting the one you wanted.”

I tell people I drive a thousand dollar pickup so I can have a 40k lawnmower

I paid sales tax on it too the guy was like “farm use?” And I was like “yeah” and he was like “you got the number?” And I was like “personal use”

Well I’m gonna bake something at some point but I got them for handling purposes. A speed rack full of pans can hold like 40 dozen in 25 square feet.

These are fuckin gnarly though like there’s still parchment on a few it’s a little cold to be pressure washing but I don’t have the elbow grease for this today either so I guess I’ll be cold.

Once the shop is making me money hand over fist I’m gonna hire a bunch of my construction homies to fit out code compliant kitchens in shipping containers then the next person who wants to do drive-through noodles and boba can just write me a fatass check.

In your low-income area where people don't seem to be able to afford donuts and coffee as a regular thing (am I misremembering $40K household income?), where the bakery folded because they were in a bad location (e.g., not in a dirt parking lot), where the Perkins went under (because the strain of meeting the franchising overhead was too much, IIRC, which should tell you something about your customer base), and you still haven't really made any donuts (the batch of 12 "sorta good" donuts that people picked over at Thanksgiving doesn't count)...

I feel like I've invested more time and energy thinking about this 'business' than you have.

Dude, you've got to do something to test real demand for your product before you set all that money on fire. Food truck (expensive but not as expensive as blinging out your murdershack), baking at home then selling (not giving away, selling) them somewhere else, commissary kitchen, whatever. If you can make good product AND you can sell in good quantities, then you can move forward. You're trying to land on the moon without sending up John Glenn to orbit the earth first, and without commercial baking experience (or a plan to get anything like it) you're trying to build your launch vehicles without any Operation: Paperclip Nazi rocket scientists.

i would have gone with 3D printing and saying you get a lot of business online, but you can’t eat those donuts.
