I just see rehab as too much of safety risk when we could invest in something lower risk with higher profit.<br/><br/>I think car dealerships are a good example of something we should invest in. The Elders are hundreds of years old so they probably don't have a great understanding of modern cars or car fiancee.They're old money, They're rich but they got rich through land ownership and natural resources. Especially in Louisiana where there's a lot of oil money.<br/><br/>We could probably open a pawn shop and be fine honestly. If we're selling used iPads, I'm highly doubtful a three-hundred year old Toreador understands the monetary value of an IPad 4.<br/><br/><br/>This is why I think arms trafficking might be something to look at. I'm just going to assume firearms aren't well-regulated in the bayou and the Camarilla elders probably don't understand the value of an M4 considering some of them served in the Minutemen.It'd also give us warning if anyone is coming to town for a fight because they'd probably stock up with us before starting anything.<br/><br/><br/>Edit: A car dealership would also be great for bribes. If we're being investigated by the police, give the police commissioner a brand new corvette  and he'll probably close down the investigation. <br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>I was thinking perhaps of tours,  running those vampire tours through the French Quarter at night.  Which the tours draw tourists and would make a nice steady herd supply of blood for the coterie.   A supply that the harpy or sheriff could not keep tabs on since it was transient coming and going.    Making the coterie more elusive in its feeding.   An not stepping in others territories.
