Good stuff guys. Yea, I cannot afford to go into that expensive area, it just isn't feasible. I'm trying to find somewhere where the business can remain somewhat brisk the rest of the year besides the summer time, but like you said, the places on the shore have short seasons, moving to those parts of NH sound more feasible.
Anyone here live in Maine, or know about it?

Good stuff guys. Yea, I cannot afford to go into that expensive area, it just isn't feasible. I'm trying to find somewhere where the business can remain somewhat brisk the rest of the year besides the summer time, but like you said, the places on the shore have short seasons, moving to those parts of NH sound more feasible. coastline is not necssary, I will check into that ski area. The key is, finding somewhere to buy a vacant lot that isn't going to break me, and an area where people will go to, and therefore go for a couple of drinks after they ski, or fish, or what have you, Location rules the day, without it you go out of business. Portland is kind of commercial and has tons of bars per blitz's post, so that is kind of tough. But, i always figured, if you run a good business and are people oriented and fair prices, you will prosper. People will always go out for drinks, and tourists especially when they're on vacation, no question about it. Bars staying open late is good too, a positive. The main bitch is going to be getting insurance for when some a$$ hole drinks and drives god forbid and sues me, but you gotta pray it does not happen, I'm curious if anyone here is in the bar business, but thats another issue. do you guys know approx. what the land and vacant lots etc go for and if there are any available in the aforementioned places? kittery is out, now gotta look at better places of value for my buck, just want a blue collar neighborhood where people like to drink, and tourism comes by for the winter months, That is the key IMO, Thanks guys, whatever else you come up with send it my way, I'm keeping a folder with all this stuff for the location, thanks

every time im browsing the general discussion forum, i absolutely crack up at the subject line of this thread.
"anyone here live in maine, or know about it"
makes it sound like theres some rumor flying around that some state named "maine" exists somewhere in the united states and only a select few can confirm that there is life on its ground.

LOL gman, my mistake for phrasing it that way, just trying to get info about something there, but now that you mention it, I wonder if there is life there, but I'd venture to guess yes, even though I don't know anybody who lives further north than boston, Hopefully some more people can help me out, that's what these boards are for the exchange of ideas, usually most people have something to offer

I really just wanna work in something I like, I've bounced around doing a bunch of things, I wish there was a nice madjacker somewhere that owned a business and could give me a job where I can feed and live in apt for myself and afford a 12 pack of cold beers lol kidding aside Id like a family some day, so you need to do better than that, if only I had a dollar for every idea I have thought of that I never did, Quite hard to get things to materialize, take it easy, I love this site, like you said, everyone has something to offer usually
