Hi I just found this site, not sure what I,m getting into. I am about to start a new lawn care busness, I tried self employment before and it didnt work out so good but it was a sales and collection busness. I hope the lawn care busness will be better. I lost my job after 15years with the company i was with and at my age not finding any jobs, so I,ll start my own. So most of the things I,ll be instered in will have to do with starting a buseness.
When I,m not working I spent some time fishing and if I,m not fishing I,m restoring old tractors or building custome fishing rods.

Can you give us some insight as to what you thought of this experience? What did you like about it or dislike about it?

Were there any learning experiences you were able to take from it that can help you make this business better than the last?
