I have just bought business number 8!!!!!! Now when I say business, each one of my businesses is mini and could all link together as one but I have a strategy to keep them seperate to joe blogs public as I may want to sell one or two in the future.

I now own a nappy cake business bought from a lovely American lady who has had an offer too good to refuse in America and so she is leaving on a jet plane next Friday.

And how much did I pay for this said business???? £50

A nappy cake is a gift which looks like tiers of a cake but the layers are made of nappies. Google it

Sara - No disrepect but, judging by your other posts, business isn't bringing in much work/ wealth so why are you buying yet another business and why could you not just have set that one up yourself anyway?

Spreading yourself too thin will not benefit anyone, especially yourself.

Not used nappies but packs of nappies are the biggest expense when you have a newborn. You guys what are you like

Wow say it like it is why don't you!!!

I am looking at the big picture here and not the small one. The £50 covered the cost of all the stock she had left before she moved and it was worth £500

I am buidling the parts of each business a bit at a time and as one really begins to tick along nicely I will build the next.

Thanks for your rain on my parade much ablidged

Looks like a cake but it is made up of entirely useful things for a baby such as clean unused nappies, bottles, dummies, bibs, shampoo, socks, mittens etc

Fair enough, well that makes more sense. I question the necessity of creating a 'cake' from nappies and such, but then not being in the world of babies I wouldn't know the first thing about it.

What I would say is that the reason that people are calling spades spades is because they want to help you and don't want to see you dig a hole for yourself trying to juggle several things at once. Would you rather they nod and smile and tell you everything's going to be wonderful when they think otherwise?
