Self-funded roll-ups?

What are your thoughts on pursuing a career doing self-funded rollups? Whether it be in franchised businesses, convenience stores, gas stations, etc, is it a plausible career path to say, acquire one franchised business (which set procedures and processes in place), and grow inorganically? Or what about acquiring a one-off non-franchised convenience store and use the funds from it to acquire other existing convenience stores in the area?
