Not enough capital? Or not the tools to hire and manage the talent?

More than enough capital, which is why I'm trying to get a handle on the economics of this situation, so I can hopefully profit. I'm still a weak manager. I am just only building tools I can use to manage/delegate without micromanaging.

Over the summer, I partnered with someone I met to run a mineral rights auditing company that was inspired by our success in litigation financing. Was a huge time-suck.https://oilstub.com/

I've launched 3 businesses. Everyone liked that one. Only one that failed.

Yeah. It was universally adored. The other two were universally hated. Go figure.

Yeah, it is super interesting. We took publicly available data (texas rr commission and tax data) and matched it vs. peoples' mineral rights check stubs to find discrepancies in what people were being paid vs. what the oil cos were reporting.

We signed up two large clients. Found tons of discrepancies. Then we'd call the oil cos on their behalf. And they always had an explanation "not what the well-head says" or "oh we didn't sell it in the permian, it went to cushing, ok which had a lower spot price at the time".

We didn't stop there (giving up is not my MO) and that's not the whole story, but that was a big problem we faced.

Oh, yeah, the oil companies are liars. Check that :-)
