Business. I'm going to start my own business. It's going to cost approx. $80,000 to get it started. I'm undoubtedly going to have to get some equity financing to make it work.
If you have any questions or comments about this soon-to-be venture of mine, post em' here. :)

Um... What kinda business, first off. And all other info would be nice.

I'm not going to write it all right now, because my fingers don't have that much stamina. I'll just answer specific questions as they're asked. As for you question, I'm planning on starting my own paintballing company. It's going to be different from most other places, mind you. It'll be a field where you role play as either a SWAT member or a Terrorist. Ever player will get a high end gun (Tippmann A-5) and a pistol sidearm, as well as tactical vest, camo pants, and wireless communication devices. Each team will also have a sniper that they can place anywhere on the field. These players will be equipped with the Tippmann customized sniper rifle.
If you want to see specific guns or accesories, ask me and I'll give the link.

Good luck dude, try to make it as "commercial" and "big" as you can, if you know what I mean by that.
Devlin- 01-08-2006
Yeah, I know. When I get it all up and ready, I'll have a big thing on the first day where people can play for free. Hopefully a free game or two will get people to spread the word a bit. Plus, I may place adds in those paintballing magazines, which should draw a bit of a crowd.

Are you serious?
If so, good luck.
Devlin- 01-08-2006
Yeah, actually. I'm completely serious. And I think I may be able to make it work. I've actually got a great uncle who's a millionaire a few times over. I don't know him that well, but if I talk to him about getting a loan for a serious business point of view, he may be interested. I'll just offer him a share of the company for his financing.

Okay, I'm posting links to the sites to showcase some of the equipment I'm planning on getting. These things aren't set in stone, but I'm using them as a guideline for pricing.

Cause I know you can I get an extra 10 paintballs every time I come to make me feel superior to the rest of the people there?
Devlin- 01-08-2006
Jamith, I'll give you an extra 11 paintballs.
Jamith- 01-08-2006
Sick, only give everyone else in the forum 10 :wink:
Devlin- 01-08-2006
Alright, but let's get back on topic. I can see this little thing leading us farther and farther away from the topic.
Jamith- 01-08-2006
Paintball business.
Devlin- 01-08-2006
Right. I found a nice spot near Lindsay Ont. for sale. It's about 3 acres, and it's only $11, 000.
Jamith- 01-08-2006
