I have to give credit where credit is due concerning 18 year old David Holston who was in Seattle to visit his mother in early February when the severe snowstorm hit the area. Holston who is the owner of a landscaping company and snow plowing company in Coeur d' Alene Idaho took the advice of his friends to take his snow plowing equipment to Seattle in case of a weather disaster would take place. David had played an ad on Craiglist that his services were available to snowplow the homes that needed his services despite the fact that he charges $750 an hour for his work. Even though his price is considered steep, the people in Seattle were willing to pay him his salary since his work getting the snow plowed was worth every penny to get rid of their snow in their lawns. David earned around $34,000 dollars in four days of work. Talk about working hard for the money.

it must be in an affluent area. but i do admire him for having a landscaping and snowplowing company at 18. i hope he spends that money well, make it last or grow.

I agree with you hereandthere since I also believe that only residents who live in an affluent area could afford to pay for his services.

I am amazed that at 18 years of age, Dave has his own business to assist people in need.

If I have the chance, I will do the same thing. At present, we need to keep on working hard to secure our lives in the future. Wish me luck on this matter.

@Deepizzaguy His friends were very wise to suggest he do that. Of all the people to know what to do in a snowstorm he certainly is one. That is great what he earned in 4 days.
