Building $1 million taxes insurance overhead $180,000k/yr, maybe $27k in sales per year. Is it worth it? You could pretend it’s the 90s and employ suicidal Gen Xers as a form of charity. Seems better than what bill gates does

The question is would you be like “oh no my net worth 😢” or just chill and ngaf? It seems like, at some point, even with billions in wealth, that most would eventually sell the place out from under the Gen X wards.

All that I've known really struggle. They're tiny, family-owned and limited in profitability. Attending major shows & having an online presence is mandatory, though they don't travel international.

I'd enjoy doing it as well, but I imagine it's only going to get harder.

It doesn’t preclude you from doing other shit. You’d hire a Gen Xer to run it. Maybe a 1981 millennial if no decent Gen Xers could be found. Since no one uses cash anymore they couldn’t really steal that much from you.

I wouldn’t deign to “run” one, just own it behind the scenes. Maybe go in as a Secret Shopper to grade the staff. But we need more things to employ Gen Xers. The latest shooting in Minnesota was bc the Gen X assailant was unemployable bc he’s Gen X. We only need like 7000 of these jobs nationwide spread out strategically to absorb all excess Loser human capital. Instead Bill Gates and exeunt are focused on Africa. What is .03% of your current NW? $280?

Vinyl is so fucking expensive, I can't comprehend how it's so popular. It doesn't sound better than digital unless a vinyl release has a master with more dynamic range and you can ignore the clicks and pops.

There are people that have spent multiple thousands on LPs and listen to them on a shitty Crosley.

From a sound quality perspective, that money would have been far better spent on a legit stereo and a streaming subscription.

In what way? In terms of quality you can stream in lossless or even hi-res lossless from Tidal, Apple Music & Qobuz.

In terms of selection nothing can top CDs. But Spotify has 99% of what I want and I can live without the 1% it doesn't have.

This might sound dumb but I got rid of my massive hoard of downloads for moral reasons and listen only to Spotify now.

Not exclusively vinyl, but CDs & shirts as well.

I'd open a metal shop, and have a number of JVs with European companies. (Ravage Records just re-released Resurrection's Embalmed Existence in SS & LS!)

Maybe I could get Dan Seagrave to sell prints & sign albums he painted.
