Well, Vinke...I do not owe you an explaination. I do want stronger competition so that the public has better choices. Your are right, I do not want more half a$$ one man shows with low standards. I get tired of hearing folks get ripped off. Do it right...or forget about it.

My father actually discouraged me from becoming a business owner. You obviously don't know anything about me.

Also, while everyone encourages folks to start out, I see the startups...and the failures each and every year. There are many casualties that have lost thousands of dollars. People do not understand the risk...and only hear that the sky is the limit. What about the other end?

...that's the kind of amazing rags-to-riches story that has elevated Wink to the status of industry leader!


That's why everyone wants to get into nuisance work. Fast, easy, money....... smile

nuisance work is really a lot less about the trapping....it would seem that trapping is the biggest part but really finding work and keeping clients thinking about you is really the bigger part...the advertising, marketing, business administration...keeping up with taxes, etc...

Josh, that's the wisest thing I've ever heard from you. BTW, Why's it "TRapper.." with a capital "r"?
Can't get to any of your sites.
