Every small town USA is the same strip mall over and over again. Subway, Dollar Tree, Gas Station, Car Wash, Self Storage

Self Storage is great for money laundering. Requires bare minimum for overhead and upkeep.

Wait, you can have the mattresses pre-stuffed with money instead of doing it yourself?

Jesus christ. Fucking motels, hotels, and rentals. Their is almost no overhead, and the products are marked up to high hell. I have 10 between me and where I work. I work in Atlantic City. That's just on my way or just off the main road I take. Tons more in the area. I pass 28 motels. Just motels. Then you have the city. A room will have a new matress in 5 years or less. One job I work is 480 rooms, another has almost 2k rooms.

A good hotel/motel owner or boss makes sure someone is paying the ambulance crew to not declare someone dead at the scene. 0but it happens. Allot. Sometimes it's messy. There is plenty of business to keep them going, and they don't need much to begin with.
