Independence The American Dream

Donation protected
Hello,
I'm Gabriel. I lost my job just before the pandemic and found it impossible to find work during the pandemic. I'm fundraising to start my own business. On July 6th/ 7th 2021 I died (clinically). I was brought back from the brink and spent the next 7 days or so in a coma. When I came home from the hospital I decided I didn’t want to work for someone else anymore or end up in a position where I'm reliant on someone else or be fired, laid off, etc for any reason. I want the Independence of owning my own business, and enjoying the fruits of my labor. I've worked for others since I was 15 years old and now I'm nearly 50. If not now, then when?
My dream is simple, nothing ground-breaking or earth-shattering, just to provide for my family. I'm starting that dream of mine by creating my own company and I could really use your help.
My company will be landscaping, snow removal, and furniture making. I’m still writing the great American novel at night (some nights anyway).

The funds will be used to start my LLC, and purchase needed equipment, truck, trailer, mower, blower, saws and oh my! The obvious equipment needed for such an endeavor. I don't need new and shiny, so I figure Craigslist and the like can help to get me what I need, and my feet solidly under-neath me to be successful. I ask that you help a disabled vet for his chance at working for himself to provide for his family.
