5·2 days agoThe little free library I did for under $500. 😉
Nope, I opened a full bookstore for less than $10,000. The other $40+ is operating funds. I can keep this going for some time!
I had that happen in January, I built my own bookstore.

NY Post is not a valid source for anything.
While Politics doesn’t have a 30 day limit the way World does, it’s worth noting this is super old:

But it does provide context for current events such as:
Image posts, self posts, and images of social media are not allowed.
Politics IS a popularity contest. Literally.
Blogposts, including Substack, are not allowed.
Image posts are not allowed.
You are rewarding bad behavior by throwing your vote in the trash. Nobody cares about parties with <3% support. 😉

Throwing away your vote helps ensure the worst of the two viable candidates gets elected.
They aren’t viable when, election after election, they get at most 2 to 3 percent and everyone knows it.
World is a US News Free Zone
X-Men #4 (1st appearance of Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch) ran me something like $4,000? I forget exactly.

How do you open a bookstore for under $10,000?
Well, first you find a location with $600 a month rent. LOL.
Floor was $350 and $500 to install it. Bookshelves were $1,100. UV window tint to protect the product was $500.
From there it’s a matter of setting up accounts with major wholesalers and ordering product.
Most folks don’t realize this, but in general, the markup on books is around 35% to 55% depending on the publisher and the service.
I bought a bunch of nice Halloween stock for $6.50 a book, retail is $28.95, which is ridiculous. I’m selling them for $12.95 and still making money on them.
