[QUOTE="Iowa Dave, post: 23439, member: 2195"] I appreciate your enthusiasm and desire--but you can't do work for others: 1) as you admit--"lacking the skills to do certain jobs". 2) With someone else's machine--you need excavator's insurance for one thing--if something goes wrong your brother will get sued as well as you. 3) just by reading something. 4) Without several thousand dollars a year for insurance and advertising. 5) Without a contractor's license. I suggest you get a job working for someone who really knows their stuff, and soak in everything like a sponge, and save $$$$$$ until you can fund a realistic start-up plan. You can be glad its not as easy as you think--if it was everyone would be doing it. Once you are really ready, you will do well. It took me about $75,000 to really get going. Don't worry, only the first million is hard!! (just teasing). Seriously, you're not ready yet. Being able to operate the machine is BY FAR the easiest part. [/QUOTE]
