Anon gets shut down by the department of agriculture
Didn’t Trump axe that one too?
Unironically why small business goons love voting Republican.
You can brew mutant shrimp in a vat in your garage and take them to a wholesaler in a leaky bag labeled “Wild Caught Magic Beans” then sell them at some absurd markup. When half your customer base gets food poisoning, you blame DEI, throw down a smoke bomb, and run off with your profits.
Shrimp > blockchain. Can’t disagree with him there.
For that matter, shit is better than blockchain. Because at least shit is good for manure.
And then you realize far too late that stuff like this is strictly regulated and you forgot to comply with all the standards for product safety and hygiene and the state is going to rip your ass so far open that a truck can make a u-turn it it.
Just do it in a red state and buy favor with the governor.
That’s expensive. My governor is an alfalfa farmer in a desert state where alfalfa is ~1% of GDP and >50% of water use, or something like that. He’s already a grifter, so getting my own grift approved is going to be expensive.
Anon discovers basic capitalism and lucked into an underserved market.
Isn’t this technically just commerce? At least until he does an IPO.
No? He’s acquiring capital (land, shrimp farm equipment, shromps) and using his labor to create something (more shromps) and selling his product for a profit.
He owns the property, takes the investment risk, and keeps the profits. In theory he’s competing in a market with other shrimp sellers but like I said from the sound of it the market is pretty thin so he gets to sell for a huge profit.
I know a guy who bought a plot of almost worthless land an hour out of town fenced jt and bought a bunch of goats. We all thought he was insane.
10 years later he is retired at 40 because it turns out that certain communities will pay very good money for organic free range goat.
There’s multiple avenues how you can increase your wealth, if you have investment capital, and nothing goes wrong.
Two very big ifs, sadly.
Yeah, I also know a goat farmer in my neighborhood.
In the same 10 years, she faced an expensive lawsuit from someone who wanted her land, an epidemic that destroyed her herd, animals dying from people feeding them the wrong plants through the fence, Covid forcing her to close the farm to visitors, and other hardships.She’s barely out of the woods now, but definitely much worse off than if she had invested the money into stocks.
