A steady business that nets 250k/year profit is probably worth no less than 2 million.
If it’s possible to save 2 million by the age of 34 working as a plumber (even working 10 hours a day 7 days a week), I’m in the wrong industry.
If I did have 2 million in the bank with the eye to buy a 250k/year business, I’d vote for McCain, Ron Paul, or the devil himself as long as he promises to cut taxes on the ultra-wealthy.
