After losing to President Obama in the election earlier this month, his former political opponent Mitt Romney has kept in the shadows of defeat. The former Republican nominee was spotted at La Jolla gas station Monday pumping gas, looking rather disheveled. TMZ reports that he and his wife were on a movie date, catching the Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 and grabbed some pizza afterwards. The flick of Romney at the tank was snapped up by Reddit user mkb95, who wrote "Mitt Romney at my local gas station. He looks tired and washed up." He even got to interact with the former presidential candidate. "I talked to him for a good three minutes while he was filling his tank," the photographer added. "I guess he's moving to one of his houses in the town I live in, La Jolla." Things aren't entirely bad for Romney. He gets to wallow in his losses as the owner of a $12 million mansion in California.

It would not be surprising if Mitt has a heart attack or worse soon. Defeated older men don’t take defeat easily, especially after devoting so much time, effort and money and coming so close.
But in NJ the gas prices are cheaper than MD where you have to pump your own. Go figure...
Romney is in a different place though.
Remember that Bishop Romney knows that he is in the process of becoming God, and that he will come to have his own planet where he is God the Father, as our God is to us on this planet.
So, he has that going for him.
Gunga galunga, gunga gunga lagunga.
“This might be “news” if he was pumping his own gas in New Jersey”
“That would be illegal. New Jersey’s politicial machines have seen fit to protect us from the dangers of pumping our own gas and insist that we have professional gas pumpers pump our gas for us”
That was my point
IMHO, we’re cheap delivery and high volume, competitive, margins are typically thin.
From refinery to anywhere in the state is within an hour, most are closer since the refineries are right here.
To get the lowdown on their revenue and costs, it takes an hour or so to explore the idea of buying a gas station; you can research, talk to business brokers, etc.
Around NJ, those businesses are mostly owned by “new” Americans now due to eroding margins and headaches. But the business can have some nice features if well planned executed, i.e., getting A-1 treatment by your auto mechanic, being able to avoid buying brand new cars, etc. If you think about it, if you just make enough profit after all is said and done to cover your costs, i.e., purchase, fuel, maintenance, insurance of your own personal autos - you’ve netted your auto expense to zero.
Is that anybody known?
