My step mom is selling her business. I have 3200 dollars in savings. I also have a car which i intend to get 4000 dollars from. Bringing me to 7200.

I need a solid offer for her. A solid offer being possibly 10-12k cash down and then payments. The business makes 4000 dollars a month so its well worth obtaining.

How do i go about making 5000 dollars in the next approx month.

Im already working full time.

Why would you sell your car if you need work? Without a car you limit yourself to even less jobs.

Drug trafficking. But seriously, you think somebody has a legal way to make you that much money besides the ways you already know? Working full time and all...

Why would she sell it if it's worth owning?

Ask her if you can pay it off in installments.  I assume 4000/month is profit and not just revenue?

More to the point if it does make 4k a month why would she sell it for 12k...

Yeah, really depends if $4K is profit.  Overhead/Margin could be a b*tch.

perhaps it's an entrepreneurial hand-me-down; a chance for mitch to get his first business, but to earn it, partly, in the process

Mitch is a strange character so I wouldn't like to speculate anything about him.

Hasn't even specified the kind of business.

Well the $4000 dollars is profit before taxes. It's a paper route, which contrary to popular belief makes very decent money.

Shes selling it because shes moving onto a bigger business in another state.

Her asking price is 30k however the opportunity it would give me is also worth something in her eyes. So my large cash downpayment along with payments would be the way to buy the route.

I don't know what answers were supposed to be giving either. How should someone make money? I don't know there's about 5000 generic ways and if anyone knows of a little known way they're not going to share it.

So ill continue with my semi amusing answers...

Personally I wouldn't "invest" in a paper route of which your customer base can opt out of in favour of better competition. What are you getting for your money, just the route details and customers?

paper-routes will be dead in the next 10 years. she's probably getting out of the business now for that reason; a safe exit strategy, if you will.

Go to the bank and get a small business loan. Good luck.

DST = serious suggestions, pls.

OP: I don't know what you're calling full time, but if it's like a 9-5er, work harder and work longer.
