I’ve got $15,000 USD of disposal income to invest in a DIY business, what tools/machinery should I buy to make some money? I was looking at CNC machines

buying random wildass guess stocks currently pays better than any real business type venture with 0 physical suffering

What is your skill set? What do you want to do? You could buy a couple sets of titties for some broads and pimp them on onlyfans...

I have a rule that I dont do business with women, even if I’m whoring them out. I’m a wholesale car dealer, so sales and nigger rigging cars are my skills. Have a big ass warehouse I only use like an eighth of. Was thinking of putting in a paint booth and hiring a body/paint guy but that’s boring and I kinda want a hobby/side thing

Maybe buy a couple of cheap mini excavators to rent out? Or some wide format vinyl cutters for window tinting and vehicle graphics?

Since you came here for business advice my advice to you would be not to exclude 50% of population from doing business with you

I'm going to be honest with you, $15k is not very much for starting up business operations even if it feels like a significant amount when you're wageslaving. Just renting warehouse space, workshop, or commercial property to operate out of would blow through that even before you get in to inventory and equipment and utilities no matter what your business is.

The big question is what direction you would want to go with your business. There are so many variables involved that's literally impossible for anybody to give you any kind of sound advice or feedback without having an enormous amount more detail. The only thing you really hinted at is a CNC machine so you would imply you want to do manufacturing presumably retail or business to business.

Most serious business owners generally have their entire operation sketched out before they even start filing paperwork or buying equipment. They have an idea about their funding sources, their profitability, their customer base and market conditions, the logistics of how their products end up in customers hands or how their services will work from call to call or client client. These aren't questions that somebody can answer for you on a message board.

Can you bootstrap with $15k? Yes absolutely, but you need to have a tight plan laid out and execute it precisely. I don't think it's a bad idea or a bad way to be thinking, owning and running a business is an amazing experience and a good way to get out of wageslave hell, but you can't just stumble randomly around and fumble your way through it.

$15k is not enough capital to start a business realistically. Probably enough to get some kind of side hustle going. Like buying a few 3d printers, finding a niche community that will pay 1000% markup for whatever custom shit makes them basedpog, then paying for advertisements on their website and an online storefront for them to purchase from.

This guy on instagoy is always throwing out business ideas that I'm too chicken to lift a finger for. He seems pretty brilliant
