when i was in college i had this business of selling prepaid cards. that stint was short-lived because eventually my cards were being used by me (an addict texter when there were no unlimited texting yet). i also used to sell burned cds but when everybody has a burner and internet, my business waned down. for now im planning to open a new. maybe tap the cheap market in divisoria for clothes and accessories. im also good at arranging flowers.
you see, im a law student but i think i have passion in business. in the long run, when i already have a capital and time, i will probably venture into business. and i know this. im only 24 right now. its not yet late.
share me your business secret and inspire me please. thank you.

Although I am intending to have a career in finance, I am also interested in having my own business or perhaps a family business. (On second thought, having a knowledge of finance would be really useful if I eventually have a businees.) I'm thinking of a clothes shop or perhaps a restaurant, as food is a prime commodity. I am thinking of opening a vegetarian-friendly restaurant which offers affordable and healthy meals.

I do want to have one but I am not sure what to start selling. I used to sell burned dvd's but you are right, everyone has a burner now adays, so that business went down the drain. I do sell stuff on the internet once in a while, like children's clothing.

I am self-employed right now. I have tried having a business as an entertainer at birthday parties, which was fun but I didn't make enough money, and as a tutor.
I'm making a living right now as a tutor, and it's fun being self-employed. If you are a law student, maybe you will open your own practice.

i also want to have a business so if ever i would be old enough to retire, i would still continue earning. if i have enough capital, i want to have an internet cafe in my mom's hometown in the province. there are only a few internet cafes there maybe just five. and they don't have DSL yet. all of them use dial up. so i want to start an internet cafe using broadband DSL since there is not much competition there. i also want to own an apartment complex since shelter is a basic necessity. i just need a good location and a large capital. =)
