2017 was a great year for us as we doubled our workload and raised our profit margins to new heights.
But since I am Semi-Retired, I have decided to give, instead to turning away the contracts I do not want.
In 2017, I gave away over $300,000 dollars to my fellow contractors which most do not post on the net. The most recent, a Garage was in New York at .29 cent a foot and last month was 3 garages in San Francisco to my fellow sub-contractor. I asked nothing in return.
These are garages I would normally turn down because I do not want or cannot do because of distance. But I was talking it over with my wife and we decided to give a few of these high paying jobs to a select few contractors who posted less drama and want to help each other reach a better place for their company and family.
As most of you know, the Jerry Springer Drama shown on these boards does not help anyone be successful. It only brings you down to a lower level. Most of the authors of these posts of drama, do not make as much as they come across to make and feel important by their actions.
Now I have asked those whom I have given these contracts to post here, but they want nothing to do with it. I am finding in my dealings with these successful contractors do achieve allot of wealth and did so by staying away from the drama. These contractors refuse to post on the net because of 2 main issues.
-
Because of all of the drama that they or their company does not want to be associated with and
-
That they just do not want to educate their competitors about what they are making especially when others on these forms are teaching how to make 3-10 cents a foot.
What they should be teaching is just how to make 24 cents a foot on jobs of 300,000 sq ft or larger they told me and I agree.
We are closing the doors after we finish a few more jobs with record profits for the year.
In June, looking at taking our monthly vacation with the family to travel outside the USA.
Ok, so now the drama should start on this from those who are making 3 cents a foot and feel this is an attack on their ability to teach others how to be successful.
Just a 411…
In the near future, I will teach a general class on how I made $310,000 dollars in just 9 days of working. Something that all of my fellow contractors can make if they only had the right tools.
