I have been thinking more often about opening up a laundromat. Think about it... The start up cost is about a dozen heavy duty washers and dryers plus extended warranties on all the machines if they break down. Plus location and a huge power bill... You pay some kid $6 an hour to break change and you throw a shitload of food and video games in the place for people to spend on while their laundry is going on. Most of the vending machine people give you a deal 50% of the profits go to you and you don't have to spend a dime!

But the upside is if you put this business in a low income area with lots of apartments you will have a ton of clientele and it is all cash!

I have been thinking about it a lot more often recently.
