110* weather or 10* weather?

[Chrism86354]

I voted for 110 degrees. Both suck but for some reason my body just doesn't do cold well. My body will not allow me to get into a cold tub, winters are almost unbearable.

I prefer the cold because at least if your are too cold,you can always
put an extra layer of clothes on

Or get the sheets dirty with the missus.

Im built for cold weather. Here in Maine it gets pretty hot in the summer and the humidity is awful. In the winter it gets really fricken cold but at least I can take a shit with having to take a shower after due to sweat. Id take ten degree weather in a heartbeat.

Or people that own a truck and plow. Friend's dad investment on a $4K truck and plow several years ago into a $16K profit in one season, and that was of course only when it snowed, not the off days (my guess was maybe he put in a month of days work that season). I was very, very close to investing in my own truck and plow back when I had well above five figures. College is a crazy expense let me tell you. I'm going to build it up once again very soon and I will have my own plow business worst case scenario in a couple years. Nice thing is it's literally part time so all my other duties will not be hindered.

That wouldn't really work where I'm at. There is just too much competition, and with the way jobs are around here there so many people that are willing to plow that you would barely make enough to keep afloat unless you knew people that could get you an inside deal for plowing at some business.

I'll just say this. Knowing someone who started out with no real insider info on it, and just his truck, and knowing his rates, there is a lot of money to be made there. Populations just keep growing and growing, so there will always be new resi's available. Depending on the level of your ambition, anywhere from $15-30K can be had on not a ton of time commitment (generally speaking). It gets goofy with not knowing when snow is going to dump on you but it's worth it.

In some places it might work under the right circumstances I'm sure.

Where I'm at it a rural area with relatively low population density, where not only does it seem half the people own a truck or at least have a friend that plows for them, but also a lot of businesses themselves buy a cheap old truck and store it just to plow their own snow so they don't have to pay anybody else to do it for them. There are even large national retail places that do it. That's on top of a very large amount of competition.

That's right. My Aunt and cousin have their own crappy truck there in the middle of nowhere, and actually I believe they told me the Municipal (city) people actually do it for them now for some sort of fee. Where I am here in the big city it's tons of resis and commercial lots. The burbs out here are growing like crazy (that means new houses every year). You line of 20 resi's and commericals and if your price is right you are going to have a new truck for free at the end of the season for a couple dozen days, odd hours and little sleep.

But again It is hit or miss depending on season.

As I always say, it's better when it's cold because you can bundle up to get warm. When it's hot, it's harder to cool off because you can still get hot when you get naked. You could use an A/C. But that's more expensive than wearing 3 layers of clothing in the winter. That and I have always been partial to winter anyways.

 

[GibbsGrad2002]

110 degrees

 

[Straight Shooter]

10 degrees. I'd rather have the cold than the heat. With the cold at least I can do something about it, put a sweater on or a hat or even just layer up. When it's hot it's just hot, not a damn thing you can do about it.

 

[luis1972]

Hot is better!!!!!

 

[Smallville22]

Cold for me. It's easier to stay warm than get cooled off

:dito:

 

[Demi Dantric]

HOT-HOT-HOT!!! That's why I moved to the desert, couldn't stand the cold weather anymore.

[Briana Lee]

Definitely the hotter climate.

 

[Kingfisher]

I'd rather have 110 degree weather than 10 degrees. I love heat.

As long as it's a dry heat. Humidity sucks.

 

[TheSpokenWheel]

10. I'm from New England. I can take it.

 

[Red XXX]

Yep 10 and a nice bit of drizzle - nothing like an English summer!

 

[Elwood70]

I live in an area that experiences both - we get all four seasons here - but if I had to choose; I'd say cold. I'd rather layer up on clothes than have only so much to take off before I just sit around and bake.

(Ask me again in January )

 

[MILF Man]

I'd go with 10 degree weather.
