Anyone own a business on the side that is absentee or semi-active only?

I only do options trading and no rentals yet. Looking at small business ideas that someone would mostly manage on my behalf.

Mid 40s and want that safety cushion.

I always had a side hustle, I use to do web design for few years, ran with offshore team. Now I do car detailing and ceramic coating based out of my garage. Not bad I work on Friday , sat and Sunday. Pulls in enough money to pay for all vacations and one car payment

Off course myself, where is the fun in that if I hire it out. I like to get my hands dirty. Not to mention if I hire it out I have to follow schedule. If I do it myself I can eat lunch/dinner with the family whenever and run errands.

I do collections.

Freelance schedule. It's easy money but not for everyone. A combination of creativity and intimidation. You are also taking advantage of people that will gladly pay you 50% because otherwise they get nothing.

I bought a rental place. Tried to manage myself for the first year and realized what a pain it was. Got a management company so it doesn’t cash flow month to month but it’s gone up since I bought it and in 10 years or so I should have a good asset to sell for a chunk of cash. Looking into getting another in the next year or so.

How is everyone dealing with the overpriced car prices? Been in the market for a while searching for a car between leasing a car from a dealership and buying used from FB. I’m fine with either option, especially since it’s going to be my first car, but not for $6k above MSRP. Worst part is, dealers are sitting around and have got nasty at my sister and I when they’ve been trying to milk us.

Is this even legal? Any alternatives options are appreciated
