BACKGROUND
I'm a serial entrepreneur. I've always kept my eyes and ears to the ground for ways to make money. In fact, the last few days driving around my neighborhood post-hurricane Ike, I've racked my brain on how to profit from all the wood from blown over trees lying along side the road. I've been involved in MLM, I've sold stuff on Ebay and Amazon, I've tried a little bit of everything. My challenge has always been that working full-time in the corporate world very rarely lends itself to entrepreneurship. Because of my family life and corporate work schedule, I've always had to run businesses that required limited time commitment, limited startup cost, and had limited risk. In recent years I've also sought businesses that created passive income after reading Robert Kiyosaki's book, Rich Dad, Poor Dad
Earnings an individual derives from a rental property, limited partnership, or other enterprise in which he or she is not actively involved.
SEED OF AN IDEA
Several years ago I was frustrated with the lack of success and growth I was seeing in the business I was involved in. Rumors also began to spread at work about our company being potentially bought out. Fear of the future got the old wheels-a-turning! I know I had what it took to succeed in business, but I just hadn't found the right vehicle for my situation. Around this time, I remembered a short conversation I had with a friend at church about how he had bought a few gumball machines with his young daughters. He had decided to use the machines to teach his girls about business. I began to wonder how vending worked and what kind of money I could truly make. Over the next couple of weeks, I read everything I could on the subject and then purchased my first used machines and dove in head first!
