Name something GOOD that came out of this whole Coronavirus Tragedy...:)

Complete Strangers in general no longer being okay with practically laying on each other is another good thing that came out of the Coronavirus Tragedy. Before Coronavirus, this often happened a lot. You are standing in line and some complete Stranger also waiting in line stands just a few INCHES away from you. That generally doesn't happen anymore with The Coronavirus Tragedy and the mandatory 6 feet rule thing.hank God as that was just plain disturbing and awkward.

I just found out that my auto insurance has been cut in half. Dont know what took them so long but I'll take it.

Better check to see if your coverage has been cut, too!

I actually like and agree with this curmudgeonly sentiment.

Looks like there will be another $1200 coming.

payroll tax amnesty for a year for employers would be a godsend. My wife was complaining last night that I was reading an article online and ignoring her. I told her that I was reading that businesses may get tax relief and that our impact may save nearly six figures with a role back of payroll taxes. I never heard another peep out of her.

That is a great idea. When I explain to my employees what they actually cost per hour, their eyes glaze over

My average employee gets paid $11/hr, which is good for this industry in SC. When you add payroll taxes and workers comp, you're now closer to $13/hr. Our average revenue rate is $16.50/hr. Out of that difference, we have to pay for everything else. It's like a grocery store. You only make a couple pennies per dollar but it's a volume game. You know the drill Ralph. People think business owners swim in money. Only the well established ones with good reputations do. You have to make a lot of wise decisions to get there first.

You should get into in-home care. The market grows every day and is somewhat recession proof, especially if you do medicaid.

Ours is very similar numbers wise. I’m trying to wait it out at the moment. Depends on a ton of things.

We may pivot. Lots of ideas being thrown around
