My boss just told me that if he had nothing but a pick up truck, a valid driver's license and $10,000 that he could easily make over $100,000 a year and he refuses to elaborate or tell me how. He is an extremely successful business man that has made millions of dollars so I don't think he's lying. How do you make over $100,000 a year with just a pickup truck?

I live in the United States, rural red state if that matters.

The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where "feed" and "seed" both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck". So, when Chuck owned the shop, it would have been called "Chuck's Feeduck and Seeduck".

This is a good plan. It’s pretty easy to pressure wash shit, and the worst time you’ll have is having to run a long hose to a water line or rent a scissor lift to get somewhere high up. You can take the paint off sometimes, so just make sure you account for that. But aside from that, you pretty much just need a pressure washer, which aren’t that expensive, some hoses, and a truck.

Having a pickup gets you around to the busiest truck stop. One blowjob takes 10 minutes on average and nets him $25. Minus time spent waiting and driving between truck stops, he needs to blow off 11 truckers a day, or about 2 hours of active sucking per day to make $100k per year.
