Building Wealth with a T.E.N.T : My Journey to Financial Freedom

Building Wealth with a T.E.N.T.: My Journey to Financial Freedom

February 12, 2023

Posted by Marcelo Bermudez

Discover a unique approach to building wealth by using a T.E.N.T. Learn how to make smart financial decisions and achieve financial freedom. Get inspired by my journey and find out how you can create a secure financial future by choosing to build wealth instead of earning a fee.

I love small and medium businesses.

It is a great time to buy either, especially recession-resistant ones.

What do I look for?

·         [T]ired – I’m closing on the sale of a materials business where the seller still takes orders by hand, does no marketing, and does inventory once a year. It has 40% margins. Imagine what a little software could do?!

·         [E]asy – There are plenty of in-demand and simple businesses that could use a financial management upgrade and a little bit of tech to increase cash flow.

I’m hoping to buy three laundromats in 2023. None of them do fluff and fold and only take quarters.

 ·         [N]arrow Thinking – Is the business missing opportunities to expand into products and services clients would want?

I’m analyzing a healthcare business that sells one type of service and product. It has not leveraged the actual healthcare community to increase sales.

·         [T]ime-tested – Has the business been around for at least five years under the same ownership? Even if the business isn’t growing by leaps and bounds, it has the momentum a good operator can use to find success.

What businesses can you look at and buy using a T.E.N.T.?
