[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is an article in today's WSJ that some of the most successful young males in Ohio are in the Amish Community in Holmes County. They only had 8th grade educations. They significantly out earn other males of the same age in the US with their startup businesses. [/quote]

This is the only post on DCUM that's ever made me want to reply "Wut".

I'm going to track down the article...gift link would have been nice...

If the Amish are into crypto and social media now I'm going to die laughing.

I'm aware they run some serious businesses in Amish country but I want to know where the startup money is coming from.  Intra-community lending would be less surprising than completely self-funded growth.

I'm from PA and there are a number of businesses established by Amish or former Amish that do very well. One is installing solar panels and business is booming.  Others do construction. There is money there for people who know how to build things and can hustle.[/quote]

Can they really “hustle” with a horse and buggy and without a cell phone?![/quote]
