Greatest reward

is to teach someone and watch them use the knoweldge you gave them to succeed on their own.

for this, i ask if someone can find a local in Barrenquilla Colombia for me to rent to start my business.


thanks

Hopefully, this does NOT involve a transfer of funds from Nigeria with YOU showing good faith money up front.

many have dreamed and many have had nightmares...but if you think your going to change this place by yourself you have another thing coming....you have been warned..internet cafe...just wait until you watch you neighbors do the same business for -10% profit ....you don't believe me just wait....grocery store when the grocery store come to your door every 10 minutes......again you will be surprised like I was at how these people run small business here in Colombia...do you thing and would you be happy with a 2 % profit margin on your grocery store? that's all I will ask

Vic, none are so blind as those who will not see,

Peso high point was in March of 2003 when it hit 2959, now it's at about 2033. Watch me ride this wave to success. You are starting a business in Barranquilla and you have to ask a chat board to suggest a good location or partner.. ROTFLMAO

Gator, what´s ROTFLMAO I think I get the LMAO part, but the beginning?

OP - Hey try a bakery as well, there's only about a million in each city.

You said we or maybe I made ignorant comments - you plan on changing Colombia all by yourself with an internet café and a grocery. Who's ignorant? (who's bliss?).
