My Uncle lost his RV repair and snowplow repair shop today.
If the economy wasn't so fucked, and only if it would snowed as much out back east and midwest,we would be flying high. We plow too and just we'll keep that going until we find a newer,cheaper place to start up again. They know it too, but I think they were quietly hoping for it to end too. The landlord at the building was a real asshole and went out of way to make sure we were all miserable.

My Grandparents used to HATE the snow.They were snowbirds but are too old now. But they are now praying for snow every day!!

2. I knew someone who had a fleet of snowplows
and snow shoveler crews working for him. Denver had a huge blizzard of 81 0r 82 I believe,and they spent a week basically shoveling and plowing. This guy put $40,000 dollars in his pocket when it was all said and done.

Snowplow repair is also a very lucrative business if it snows. And we do both and can repair our own plows.and they BREAK all the time. Not anything major, but enough where someone to slap a seal or something really quick.
