Last time I was there I hit up, can't remember the event, but the food trucks on Thursday night on...Broadway?

A café with an upstairs living unit can be a good combination, many small operators will live upstairs.Having the idea is one thing, but food service is a highly regulated use, about the only thing worse would be medical.Not all, especially older buildings will have sufficient plumbing or electrical to meet the requirements.

We're not high maintenance, we rarely drink and fancy food is not our style, good times with friends is really not that expensive.Just now getting into competitive ballroom dancing, meeting lots of fun people and having a great time with it.

Aggressively pay off your debts and stock up on food and ammo.

Just food for thought.....Good luck

The next is food, which sucks up another 20-30%.

Core CPI (CPI with Food & Energy prices stripped) is still on an uptick.Also agreed on your mentor's comments re: how to scale.

Inflation is more dangerous, because it squeezes household budgets silently until they break down under the debt load, but even then food and shelter remain the core.

Let me know if you are interested...the food is epic too at the restaurant we are having it:)

A skilled trade such as what you're pursuing is a solid plan and can put food on the table in any economy.I would strongly suggest you complete your schooling.
