I have been looking at my options, as far as long term career goes, and I can not think of anything I am good at.

So I figured I would start a vending machine business or something? :huh:

So you want to start a vending machine business. Here's a guide.

1) Stand in a public area holding various items of confectionery.
2) Open your mouth.
3) When somebody inserts a coin, check its denomination with your tongue. If it is correct, swallow it and continue. If not, swallow it anyway and stare angrily at them for more.
4) Roll 3d6. On a roll of 12 or below, dispense the item. Otherwise, begin to give it to them and stop before you do. If you roll a 17, give them the wrong item. If you roll 18, punch them in the face.
5) Do not give change.
6) Profit!

Hmm... emptying the coins out after a hard day of vending might prove a little messy, so employ good hygiene practices before restocking.

Also remember to topple over and crush people who try to shake/tip you. You'll kill more people than terrorists (excluding Iraq) you know.
 
On a more serious note, my mother's ex boyfriend of 14 years dabbled in the vending machine business. He thought his idea of vending umbrellas was original and never thought up before.


He can only be described as a failure, last we checked :). He also fails at using google. ;)
 
@nickspoon: I rofl'ed ^^

Dude, don't do that. As far as I know, this job doesn't pay off very well. Especially if you are freelance. You will have to compete with the big companies and also it's pretty nasty work as you need to find customers who will let you set up your machines and you need to invest a lot of money without knowing it will pay off.

I'd rather go and start a shop or something. There are a few things which you can make money with. Try opening a video-game store or something similar. Well it depends on where you are based if it's going to be successfull. You will most certainly not end up with a mansion and a ferrari though ^^.
