If you're thinking about buying an SMB, look in the mirror and ask: "Why the f*ck do I think I can do a better job than the guy / gal who took the biz from 0 to $5mm?" You probably can't, and there's a good chance you'll do worse. If you don't have a good answer, move on.

I built a parklet in a car parking space but it was removed by the council because it wasn’t a motor vehicle. I’ve now built a parklet which is a motor vehicle and so the space for the community is back. Enjoy!
