Starting out with an ISP in every city -- tons of money

Post by klasanov »

So, it's always been a "dream" of mine to run an ISP. I finangled a way to do it with low starting capital involving loans, an ipo, and another offering of stock, as well as a cheap enough place to start in the subsidiary dlc. But that gives me 5-6 years to mature and by then, the magic telecom company has everything all set up and its hard to make inroads, and its private and I can't buy it out. So I decided to improvise.

I made a sub, had it borrow cash, then merged. I kept doing this until I had a 2 billion dollar loan, at 12 million a month interest, and then i just set up my own ISP in every city, and max infrastructure upgrades. Blew through the remaining cash and then it matured 5-6 years later and I was making 650m profit, yearly, in a deflationary economy, as a private company. the 2b loan wasn't really anything to worry about.

Telecom industry seems like an insanely successful way to go right now.
