Foods!

I could have been a statistic, I was walking back to the linq in front of ghetto Drai’s..

I walked past this homeless guy, who offered me a smoke his stuff. I walked right by him and he threw his joint and it hit my glasses from behind.

I ran as fast as I could.

You really need to keep an eye on people walking the strip.

Didn't realise how shitty it has become. The growth will slow down sooner or later. Cookie cutter homes building will likely slow down. I dont know how but there are a lot of vacant properties and office spaces for lease and sale in town. Not a good sign. There are a lot of vagrants getting into our hotel first floor. Bellagio was escorting vagrants from their expensive shops and gambling floor. You dont see that craps where I live. One of the beggars on the street in front of the Flamingo held a sign said "need money for hookers and blow why lie?" That craps is not a first amendment.

I don’t hit the strip or downtown so I don’t know what storefronts are available.

Outside of the strip and downtown, there are some really good storefronts to fit any needs. Some huge, some smaller types, good locations, good centers. And so many are empty.

The flattened economy led to it and there are some deals to be had, but it’s hard to take the risk with so much uncertainty.

It’s pretty apparent though … you need a niche, something that Amazon or the internet can’t touch, whether it be a restaurant which is high risk anyway … it’s a good time for solid ideas and a manageable overhead. I’ve thought long and hard … but, even though it disappoints me greatly, I’m the type that finds comfort in stability. I wish I was the type that could just “go for it” sometimes. I admire those people, we have a few here on site that are like that.

For instance, I know a dude who grabbed a shitty little office in Henderson, terrible location, tucked away and unknown, in one of those doctor office buildings, has the tiniest store. High school diploma, self taught on how to repair apple products. He handles the front and the back. Uses another dude for help from time to time. Rakes it in, small overhead … usually just replacing screens. Constantly booked.

But that’s a hidden example. Plenty of prime spots. I think it’s all about timing.

Lutefisk and Lefse

Lutefisk....

That's a challenge for anybody to eat.

Why it's a thing with Scandinavians (Norwegians?) I'll never understand..

I tried chitterlings(?) once. Never again. I don't remember what they tasted like because I was too distracted by the smell.

Scrabbled eggs and ketchup are the equivalent taste of chitlins. When my mother brought this to my attention I never ate eggs with ketchup again😒🥚🙄
