Who knew the secret to getting millions of dollars is to simply become a tomato farmer? 🤔🤣

Btw, this is a well known ‘start-up guru’.

This works much better with candy. My son is killing it on selling fruit snacks, fruit roll ups, and Air Heads. He started with $10 now he has $100 and a bunch of inventory. Also, he doesn’t have to wait for tomatoes to grow.

I did this in middle school. My locker became a candy store and many of the kids spent their lunch money on candy. I would go to Sam's club to get candy I'm bulk to help lower my cogs. My parents who were small business owners thought this was great. The administration were not fans and my candy store was shut down.

With no TVM and a 40% tax rate, breakeven is in 1000 years.

If Nick wants to pay me $1M, I will pay him $50 a month for the rest of his life. I’ll even sweeten the deal and 10x his payment.

Never mind buying the land to plant them on. Farmland and growing permits are included in the $50 I guess?

Depends on the tomato’s species and the climate you live in.
