if i used any help, maybe, but back then i did everything myself, i would mow on a walk behind, then i would trim, and blow everything off, and i only did clean ups for my customers, and i didn't have backpack blower until april of 05 when i bought my scag tiger cub, and 500 dollar rebate came so i bought my first real commercial blower and quit using the little hand held piece of junk i used before. that was just mowing and right now, i usually do 130hr mowing so things look like they are up. but after calculating all my costs and deducting for all the wearable items who knows what it is, and honestly i don't wanna crunch every little detail and figure it out. i know i am making money and doing halfway decent for my area anyways. and my age, most other kids work somewhere and make 35,000 a year or less. so me doing triple that, even after all my deductions is still do 2-2.5x that isn't too bad.
