Everybody must already be busy and profitable.

I posted back in Jan. about a "possible opportunity for hard work and new ideas" and haven't seen any interest at all. I guess the "hard work" part must have scared the people with no "new ideas" away. The opportunity is still here for others with ideas, skills, ambition, a good work ethic, and honesty, to make a profit working for themselves on their own thing.

Hi, Steve...maybe folks would like some more details about the possibilities. Could you tell us more about the offer? and true, most of us are very busy even if not always profitable in a financial sense

You might need to share more info than that.

Lots of the road signs around here get periodically plastered with posters saying "make $$$ from home". People get immune to seeing that kind of detail less scam advertising. The only person who makes money out of it is the one paying to get posters put up.

The owner of the property has told me that he will consider proposals for serious ag. ventures from honest people.
I would think that a serious person would take a look in person. The only way to deal with the owner is face to face.
He gave me a chance in 1994 and it has worked out. My neighbor made a proposal a year ago and it is working for him.
Not much level ground available. You can't live on site. Close to a small city with job opportunities.
Look up my original post from Jan. 7.

Here is the link "possible opportunity for hard work and new ideas"

Original thread

I had a look at your first post and I am not surprised no one has contacted you about this as there is no accommodation on site , it's only a tenth of an acre , sloping and you are vague about which town it is near and you do not mention the rental
I can only see it being attractive to someone who already lives near this place where ever it is .

For 20 years I have been renting 1/10 acre of ground and using 10 gpm of geothermal water to make money. I enjoy my agricultural venture and I enjoy the money.
I have some close neighbors who are also making money using this resource.
The thing is, there are still 2000 gpm of pressurized 102 degree water going into the river with no use at all. The owner of the property may be open to proposals from serious agriculture related people who want to work hard and make money.
There are jobs in this area to pay the bills while you work on your dream.
Southern Idaho

You forgot one: unattached. Ready and willing to leave what they've got and move to an undisclosed location in southern Idaho.





Unfortunately, America really is a land of opportunity. Anybody who's got "skills, ambition, a good work ethic" is extremely likely to be doing fine already. (I'm intentionally leaving off ideas and honesty. Those are just gravy for the point I'm making here.)

Is there anybody in the country sitting at home going, "Gad, I know how to build machines, I'd like to have a bunch of money, and I'm willing to work the hours and kiss the butts that it takes to get it... but there's just no dang opportunities in any urban, suburban, or rural location in the entire United States that I could move closer to in order to get what I'm after! None!"

Because that's what you're asking for. Somebody who's already competent. And willing to work for success. Who's willing to pick up and move to absolutely anywhere. Who happens to be reading Permies.com.

And for whom "2000 gpm of pressurized 102 degree water" at an unnamed price is the most compelling business opportunity available ANYWHERE.


Pretty tall order.





Now, maybe it is a great opportunity, I'm not trying to imply that it's not. What I'm saying is, we can't tell. Not nearly enough information. So fill us in!
What are you doing with your access?
What's the rent?
Where is it?
Got some photos?

Every replier has a good point.
This is not an offer.
It is a heads-up that there may be a possibility for someone to make an income using geothermal water and a small amount of land.
Of course it is only for someone who can move to this area or already lives in this area. Twin Falls is close, there are jobs available for those who don't have a grubstake.
I don't know what the neighbor is paying for rent and he doesn't know what I am paying. I don't know his income and he doesn't know mine. We each made our own deal and do our own thing.
We can't live on site but it is fairly secure with locked gates and locked doors.
We keep a fairly low local profile because we have no local customers.
There is quite a bit of other geothermal water in this region and it is being used to make money in a variety of ways.
