Tachlis. Is it legal? No. Are your neighbors the type to complain/snitch? Is there parking? Do you want ppl coming and  going etc

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

The main products that carry a large advantage being underground are watches, alcohol, and cigarettes.

Alcohol is probably the easiest with low regulatory risk, low captial outlay, and minimal knoweldge required.

I live in queens.  i think a jewelery (lower end) or silver store may work.  One obvious issue however is that you make your house much more of a target to be broken in to.

Most definitely.
