We'll see it in about 4-6 months that this economy isn't as strong as the market suggested it was.The market is playing the fiscal side, the economy is playing the labor & debt side.

Also did you grow only through cash flow or did you take investor capital to reach where you are today? 

And if you are handling the bookings/marketing, get ready for constant calls from the owner that over leveraged themselves thinking this is a cash flow market when, at current prices/rates it is not, unless they invest significant capital into theming.It's great that you've found a handyman/cleaner you trust.
