See that boat? Yeah, I was supposed to be on it this morning. An all-inclusive day trip to Yelapa including all the fun stuff like kayaking, snorkeling, fishing, water slides, all that fun stuff. They had a special going on for half off, so only 55 USD! What a steal! All you can eat and drink along with all that cool stuff to do??? Sign me up!
But then I got the text message last night from my buddy that the boat had some mechanical issues and they cancelled the trip.
Bummer!
So while I was pretty bummed out this morning, I looked out side and the weather was not looking too good. Over cast with a light drizzle, maybe it was best it got cancelled...
THEN, I got a text message from a lady who I had been communicating with about her property for rent. A 2 story bar that had been closed down.
The only problem? She already had someone interested who was meeting with her yesterday to sign the paperwork.
Again, BUMMER!
So when she text me this morning and said that the boy she was dealing with, was hours late, only brought part of the deposit, and didn't sign a contract, she asked me if I wanted to come out today and check out the property...
Uhhhhhh, yes please!
So maybe this was all meant to be. If I had gone on the boat trip, I wouldn't have been able to see the property and maybe that boy would have gotten his ish together and closed the deal.
Lucky me! Fingers crossed this location works out because the last one, while a great spot, was a disaster dealing with the owner who seemed like he could care less if he wanted my money or not.
Business down here in Mexico is not like back in the states. You basically have to know someone or walk the streets and look for places that are vacant. They don't really advertise or market anything, which can suck for someone like me who doesn't have an inside track with a ton of locals.
Praying this goes well and I can open up shop here soon! Wish me luck!
Good luck dude!
Hopefully your professionalism will start to make up for the lack of insider contacts... it might take a while but I'm sure eventually people will much prefer to deal with you.
I'm sure you'll have plenty of other opportunities to fun it up and tell us all...
"I got my swim trunks, and my flippy floppys!" lol
Dude...
I think this might have won me the deal tonight. She was basically in a deal with another guy, but he wouldn't sign a contract and didn't pay all the money agreed upon up front. I'll know tomorrow where I stand.
Good luck!
Obviously, if the guy can't even show up to the first hurdle, how is he going to go for the rest of the race?
Some things are just meant to be bro. Congrats! Hopefully this place works out.
Tru dat man, tru dat.
Much appreciated, I think it just might!!!
Check you out. Got yourself a bar and all that other stuff plus you're $55 in the green!
Almost got myself a bar. Should know tomorrow :)
And you know...as I've told you before, it ain't easy being green.
Hell yeah. That boat trip sounds cool but you can always do that later. You were in the right place and time today for something more important.
Absolutely man, I appreciate the insight. Tomorrow is decision day. It will pave our future, hopefully, for the next few years...
The Lord works in strange ways.
Good luck with this new place!
GOOD LUCK! Fingers crossed. It's funny how things have a way of working out. Broken ship? Good omen.
Fingers crossed and sending you positive energies for successes with the 2-story bar investment!
Keep us updated. Have a terrific rest of your Sunday! @intothewild
Everything works out for the best, my sister seems to know this the most since she was just scammed out of 400 bucks! But don't worry, right down she is in the process of scamming him back, but this time 800 bucks! If it works, I will post how she did it. She may just get her money make and nothing more.
