I want to repository of profits, like a place where I can go and just see profitable things, firms or products. I think I’ve been exposed to too many fucking instances of just ideas or execution. I want to look at what is profitable. I want to know what is profitable.

If I look at something too much or too many times, I replicate it. If I just look at people just building random ideas, I will build random ideas. I want to look at profitable things so that I end up doing profitable things.

Profit is something so elusive to me. I haven’t seen a lot of profit-making things. There are thousands of businesses I know nothing about, but I know a lot about just random ideas. It’s like profit is extremely rare in the datasets that I’m observing, but profit is not rare in reality. Profit is a common thing. Well, I want to see profitable things then. It’s like I look at YouTube videos or reels or something like that where it’s just grifting, like people trying but not really doing anything. People selling courses to course sellers, they are losing money. Dropshippers are losing money. Traders who just do random trades are losing money. Startups are just vibe coding shit are losing money on CAC . Like everything that I have in my purview is just kind of losing money Like I have such a shitty data set in front of myself. I need some proper data set. Like, of course I can go to a stock market screener and look for profitable companies, but those are not the scale of operations that I can replicate right now. I need something smaller.

Maybe it is because i am running away from physical products so hard. In pursuit of zero inventory and zero logistics and shit I am letting go of so many business. Maybe the thoughts I have about logistics, minimum order quantity, and capital required are not that big of an issue, and might let me run a business way easier than these high leverage things such as software or content. And I’m sure up till now I have spent more on trying to develop a SaaS than it would have costed to procure and store some products MOQ in India. Zero-inventory, zero-logistics, zero-capital is a constraint stack that pushes you into the most overcrowded, most abstract, most CAC-heavy arenas on earth.

I wonder what might be the stats around services and freelancing. What are the failure rates and stuff like that? Is it a blood bath like Saas?
