<p>The end to President Barack Obama&#8217;s time in the office isn&#8217;t far away&#8212;and he&#8217;s taking a hard look at how he wants to spend his time once he and his family officially move out of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue next January.</p><div>&nbsp;</div><div><span style="">&#8220;What am I going to do in D.C. for two years?&#8221; <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/video/us/politics/100000004378024/how-will-obama-spend-his-retirement.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=from-potus-to-franchisee-as-retirement-nears-maybe-president-obama-should-buy-a-franchise-4501" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">President Obama asked himself</a>, kicking his feet up on a desk.</span></div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><span style="">After an unsuccessful call to the Washington Wizards, an awkward encounter at the DMV and a Snapchat mishap, the President called a former colleague, the now-retired Speaker of the House John Boehner, for some advice.</span></div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><span style="">&#8220;First, stop sending me all these LinkedIn requests,&#8221; Boehner said. &#8220;And second, here&#8217;s the beauty of this thing&#8212;you&#8217;ve got all the time in the world.&#8221;</span></div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><span style="">While Boehner might have recommended that President Obama drink beer before noon, eat McDonald&#8217;s breakfast at any time of the day or work on his tan, the staff at </span><em style="">1851 Franchise</em><span style=""> thinks there&#8217;s another, and, dare we say, more </span><em style="">productive</em><span style="">, option come retirement&#8212;franchising.
