28A-My Exit Strategy
If
I was doing very well I would plan on selling my business when I approach 10
years but if I could see that my profits were starting to decline by year 5 I
would sell it easily. The reason for this is because when I sell it that money
will only last but for so long but if I am able to make money as my full time
job I would build my money for as many years as I could. When the right offer
came by I would sell it, retire, and take my wife to go see the world because I
hate traveling but she is obsessed with it. If I made a ton of money I would be
willing to give to a family room or my kid but if was just a trend that would
soon die I would sell it and just set them up a college fund.
I
have chose this exit strategy because being rich is money that is temporarily in
your possession while wealth is money that is coming constantly that will keep
your financial position. I want to be okay financially until I die so I will
keep my business for as long as it is thriving and then I will sell it when the
right profit is offered so I can finish out my days.
I
think that my concept is to sell as much as possible while the going green
phase continues but earth could eventually just be a dust ball or we will murder
ourselves through war or creating a disease that wipes us out. I want to make a
ton of money and then start living my life and die before any of that happens.

Hi Christopher,
ReplyDeleteI thought it was interesting that you could see yourself selling your business after 5 years or 10 years. For my business, I see myself selling at the 5 year mark, but I think in either case it really depends on how our businesses are doing. I also liked how you talked about being rich versus being wealthy. I too would rather be wealthy and financially stable in the long run, and if my business were still thriving I would want to hold on to it as well. Overall, great job on your post.
