Your biggest expenses in laundry land are:
- Water💧
- Rent🏠
It's the 80/20 rule. Control the 80% and you can handle some loss in the 20%.

Thought we'd get your beak a little wettttt on how these deals get done.
1st deal is always the scariest, then you realize deals at $100M or $100k rhyme.
It's not easy, they're called sweaty biz's for a reason. BUT it is doable!
