Hi folks, Jack Spirko here. Today you are listening to an episode of TSP Rewind.

Commercial free versions of past episodes podcast blast from the past.

I put these up when I can't do a show due to professional commitments or rare vacations.

These podcasts will appear in standard iTunes, Stitcher, and other feeds,

but will be titled TSP Rewind episodes and numbered accordingly.

And today we are rewinding back to February 23rd, 2016, originally episode 1737.

Ten businesses you could start with very small investments.

And I had a whole bunch of different businesses that I kind of bounced off you guys here.

And I wanted to start out with something. My last one in this series was pet sitting or mobile grooming or something with dogs, cats, etc.

And you want to know something that happened to me?

And I still remember from all the way back there in 2016, I guess it will be really pissed off at me.

I mean, really pissed off at me. They emailed me an angry email.

I don't know if that person is still around. If you are, I'm acknowledging you, right?

What they said is you just think that you can be a dog groomer easy like theirs.

You got to get certified and then we, some of us have really expensive equipment in these exhibits.

I understand, I understand, but there's also different levels of any business.

And so you might have to work hard to become a really great groomer.

But there are people who would probably pay somebody to simply have the ability to come give the damn dog a bath and a good brushing because they don't want to do it.

So don't think you have to be locked in anything. There's also something else to talk about here.

I think it's really interesting in all of this.

So back when I did this episode, one of the things that I talked about was pet sitting.

And I would think I probably invoked one of my good friends from my past, a gal named Kathy, who lived in New Jersey and eventually ended up moving to Pennsylvania, who built a pet sitting business.
