What are the odds?

So, a couple days ago I get a phone call from the currant owner of the CM franchise that I tried to purchase two years ago. She wants out and wants to know if I want in.

I’m speechless.

Do I dare try? She’s willing to work with me on payment options. She has put the business back in the black and while its got nearly no shows on the books from her not running it after a naaasty divorce, its still a viable business that just needs someone to answer the phones.

I’m not sure if the corporate office will even bother selling to me after the stunt they pulled two years ago, although I think they owe me, I’m cautious about the possibilities. We’re going to get to lunch next week and see what we can come up with.

But I’m still stunned. What are the odds of a business coming back to a person years later? And what are the odds of this being a repeat of two years ago?

    I said it then, I’m saying it again: You can’t pass up the chance, no matter what happens. If they’re jerks about it in the end (again), at least you acted in good faith and you didn’t let the opportunity pass you by.
