It usually takes longer than this for the person to learn. Its amazing he hasn't been back with a success story yet.

Number crunching and real life are 2 different things. This business MUST be grounded in reality.

One more thing my "postage stamps"
take 8-10min each now that I have a stander for them.

It took about a week to figure out how to do this simple minded mowing thing.
And my "SCRUB BIDDING" is around $72 an hour.

Let me say, if you can prove me wrong I'm all for it. I help for others to make it. BUT, we've had several good liars lately. Some real tall tales. Since March until now many of us will find it real hard to believe you found that much work that quick. Also, as you pick up new customers they are not a full season yet. How can you possibly think we can believe the revenue you are saying? Like I said, if I'm wrong--great. But I'm right more times than I'm wrong. Been around long enough to know that things just are not that simple. I also have a degree in accounting, I know the costs and financial hazards of numbers.

Is that per man hour or as a whole?

Its easy to grow like that in florida if you work hard, and have a good amount of cash on hand.
