OCD in hobbies and OCD in business

My OCD is kicking in today about fishing, but as usual, I am thinking about a way to profit off of it.

Hard to think about coins today as my mind can't stop brainstorming. Talked with a few potential partners and a couple of potential investors.

Can't say much, but it involves buying a small fleet of small fishing boats.

The business plan has some extremely smart ideas but involves the owners and investors having a lot of fun with awesome perks. Still, have not found the "right" investor yet but we are looking for the right fit ;) . No worries if this is just a dream. The idea is only a few days old. We know the competition and how to be better than them.

This super fun trip to Mexico a few days ago inspired the new business brainstorming...

    What type of fish are those?

  • ctf_error_coinsctf_error_coins Posts: 15,433 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Yellowtail in the Pacific Ocean, one of the best fighting game fish there is for the size.

    Very sustainable and very tasty.

    I say run with the idea and follow your dreams!!

    Nice Yellowtail's.... and looks good on the plate....I never fished for those, but did many a Pacific fishing trip for Salmon...Nothing like fresh caught fish for dinner....Great pictures too.... that island is intriguing.... Good luck with the business venture. Cheers, RickO

    Before you buy a fleet of boats to make fishing a business...

    Just remember someone from Burger King ate at Taco Bell once and also had a profit idea ;)

    Fishing is not the business, just like gold mining was not the business to be in during the gold rush. Supply them miners with what they will pay thru the nose for ;)

    We will sell a super fun ultimate personal experience :)

    Slaughter :'(

    IMO not sustainable doing this :'(

    So are they "fished" from the enclosures ?
    Sort of like when bird "hunters" shoot the pheasants just after they have been released from the cages?

  • ctf_error_coinsctf_error_coins Posts: 15,433 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Yes, they keep the tuna alive and "fresh" until they get an "order" from a Japanese ship.

    I think that business has been around since the beginning of time. It's illegal in 49 of 50 states, you know.
