Hey business buyers, 10 new business listings for you this week plus is now a good time to buy a business:

What does Scott Pape from the Barefoot Investor, think is the opportunity of a lifetime?

The Barefoot Investor is a great beginners guide book on managing your money, that is not taught in schools.

It really helped me when I first read it and has sold 2 million copies just in Australia.

Not sure why this article was controversial for some people.

Scott states that “There are 2.6 million small businesses in Australia. And almost half of the owners of these businesses are run by people over the age of 50.”

He continues “And here’s the kicker: many of these businesses are being sold for a song, or even closed when the owner retires. And these are the types of businesses that you want to buy.

After all, they’re established, having made it through the ‘kill zone’ of the first five years. They have regular clients, reliable streams of revenue, and trained staff and systems in place.”
