Buying stagnant clinics and growing them to a point of maturity (either by time or $, then selling for a profit and starting over with a new venture?
Would give you some flexibility and still allow you the fun of growing an upstart. Plus, as you go through it each time around you'd be able to streamline the process. You could take time off between clinics and move around as you saw fit. Would be tough if you wanted to stay put long term tho as you'll probably have non-compete clauses in the buy-out. But then maybe you don't sell in that spot.
Non-compete is usually 2-3 years and I likely will have to stay working at the clinic 1-2 years after sale on salary. I will likely buy a smaller clinic (if I sell this one) one day, but I will not do something this big again as it is too much work without enough balance for life outside of work. ...thinking Hawaii next?
...or just poker for a year or so
