And what are your $8 grunts going to be doing? $50 details?
EDIT: PS, I'm not trying to be harsh. I just don't understand how people come on here and expect to up and start their own business and be making big coin with no experience at anything. If you said you were graduating high school and wanted to be an auto mechanic because you've been putzing around with your own cars for a couple years, and instead of starting by working at a gas station/garage/dealer, you said you were just going to start your own mobile mechanic business and expected to make 30-80K...well, that just woudn't be reasonable. College graduates with serious degrees are only starting at $30-40K and my neice went to an Ivy League school and got out last year and she's a bartender...

Thanks for the input, right now I have a small detailing business, Ive got experience, just wanting to know If its worth buying land building a garage and trying to make a living detailing cars, detailing cars is part time now, I want to make it full time, I enjoy detailing cars and running a business, I have an excellent personality, I know I can't just jump out and start a business thats why I asked you guys, what you have to say about starting a business, I noticed that in buncome (weaverville, asheville area) are there are no "big" detailers, with a few ads maybe billboards and good customer satisfactions I could have a very good business. But this is all an idea, moving to a "richer" and a more populated environment will benefit my business would it not? Scratch the idea of $8.00 an hour, I understand where your coming from, can you make more hiring workers to help you detail? That are properly trained and detail very well?
