Believe it or not he is 19. He’s worked day and night building this business.

[@hennyspiderman9974]

If he’s 19 I’m 30 lmao, buddy is 3 years younger but looks 10 years older. But salute to his success, wish him more 🔥

[@Pl-qq4yl]

First , how he looks is not important , plus you should know that when he mentioned the Slavic center , he might be of Slavic origin and these guys are strong built. I believe he is 19. And it does not matter. On the other hand these young looking guys that are slim are usually aging faster at later age but very quickly.

[@UpFlip]

We believe that it was never about age or looks, but rather about capability and dedication. 😄

My brother does the same work at 24. However think outside the box and set yourself up for reccession proof. My brother does all this but does sewer repairs which regardless of the economy has to be done. New builds and tear down can hold off in a slowed economy.

First congratulations on your sucess! Would love to talk to you to learn more about this business, i love the idea and I have a CDL, I live in the Southeast region closed to FL. Was wondering what other licenses are needed to get into this type of business to drive the excavator and to connect the sewer lines? Construction is killing down here....

Hello from Tacoma!!

Hey! Thanks for the view 👋

[@diegolanda5384]

A podcast is needed for this incredible story. Like all humans we are skeptical when such great stories are heard. I’m not trying to doubt him but if he can tell us his story as in what day and how he started his very first fence job. Tell us from the very start to currently. This will help greatly and would be very informative for those few people who have ethic but need guidance. I’m about to turn 22 and I work as a hvac residential technician. I have ethic but need guidance/advice to start my own business. If he can share his very first experiences to current ones in a podcast episode that would be great.

When are you going to feature more females? As an aspiring female entrepreneur I need more inspiration!! Please feature more women entrepreneurs already!

[@UpFlip]

We would love to.. but they're hard to find ;)

[@PermanentHigh]

Women don't have the same natural inclination to achieve things and earn money that men have. We are not the same. Men HAVE to do these things in order to gain value in society and be respected. Women however don't. You're more likely to find Onlyfans girls than actual female entrepreneurs. Women are inherently lazy when it comes to resource gathering. The reason being they have beauty to give them status, and men to take care of them. Keep that in mind when you go into business as a woman. You're not likely to find many peers
