Deep dives
Introduction to Horse Investing
Investing in horses can be a lucrative venture if approached correctly. Understanding the return on investment (ROI) is crucial for identifying profitable opportunities in this niche market. For instance, the podcast highlights an investment in a horse named Fergie, where initial costs were around $7,500, with ongoing expenses roughly totaling $700 per month. This foundational knowledge empowers potential investors to navigate the complexities of equine investment with confidence.
Structure of a Horse Training Business
A successful horse training business requires a strategic approach to managing expenses and revenue. The podcast outlines how lessons are priced around $75 to $85, allowing for significant returns when managed efficiently. For example, a horse involved in about 60 lessons a month could bring in approximately $3,300, resulting in a net income of about $2,000 after covering costs. This financial model demonstrates how careful planning can optimize profitability in horse training operations.
ROI Calculation and Opportunities
Calculating ROI is essential in assessing the feasibility of investments in horses. The podcast illustrates that a $4,000 investment in a horse, yielding $2,000 monthly, results in an incredible 50% monthly return. Projecting this annualized gives an even more astounding figure of 600%, emphasizing attractive returns compared to traditional investments. Such insights highlight the potential advantages of diversifying investment portfolios with equine opportunities.
Partnerships and Risk Management
Forming strategic partnerships can mitigate risks and enhance investment opportunities in the equestrian industry. The discussion reveals how one might engage in joint ventures, where the financial burden is shared between investors and caretakers. For example, the host mentions collaborating with a relative on a horse purchase, outlining profit-sharing and operational responsibilities. This cooperative approach not only distributes risk but also leverages each party's strengths to achieve mutual goals in the horse industry.
I just bought a horse! You heard that right! NOT house...HORSE! :)
I was recently talking with my sister in law Janelle, and I was asking her about her horse business. We got talking and I could smell opportunity for her and me! Now here we are a few weeks later and I'm the proud owner (co-owner) of a beautiful baby barrel race horse names Fergi!
More importantly in this episode I take you inside of my brain and what I was looking for during this call. How I was quickly able to spot the opportunties that were available. I also help you better understand ROI (Return on Investment) and how understanding this has made me a lot of money and helped me to better spot opportunties and structure deals and I teach you how you can do the same!
