After college, i thought i would be happy having a stable and secure job.. i like working in the office, 8 hours a day, mingling with colleagues, enjoying an okay salary, dealing with pressure and all that.. but now, i also wished to have my own successful BUSINESS! Actually, i wanted to put the subject "What kind of business do you have in mind?" because i kinda wanna know what others think about the kind/type of business which can be very feasible and successful for this present times/age/generation.. I am thinking of putting up an internet cafe business, but it seems that there are already a lot of them emerging nowadays. Wouldn't my market get saturated because of the many internet cafes already? Then i thought about franchising, but it costs a lot of money which i don't think i am capable to have at present.lolz... oh, well... i love to dream big, and i am positive it will become a reality in the future. How about you?? Do you want to own a business? What kind?

I think it would be nice to own a business. I have always been a business minded person ever since I was young. And if i really think about it, if you have your own business, you have your own time, you are your won boss and you also have to financial freedom to spend your own money.

You've said it all regarding owning a business.. i think despite of the risk you have to take in owning a business, it's all worth it. :-)

Thank you and i wish you good luck too! We should have passion in making our dreams come true of becoming our own boss.. :-) A hotel restaurant is good kind of business, i think its market is large and you'll never know how big you can expand if people will patronize your restaurant. I think one factor that really matters in a restaurant business is good food and service. :-)

I dream big dreams too, there's nothing wrong with that, It can somehow help you and motivate you to do better and achive your dream. I am still dreaming of becoming a businesswoman someday, I dream of having a business that has something to do with weddings or parties, I love childrens parties so maybe I'll go serious with that. I laso dream of having our own t-shirt printing business,my husband is gifted with this and we dream of doing it big int his industry.

I've read in a business magazine that we should start a business which is really of our interest.. i guess that a cool business you will put up someday regarding t-shirt printing since your husband has the talent, which means he has the interest in that kind of endeavor.. I am looking deep within myself in order to recognize what really are my interests which i can possibly relate to doing business.. Good luck!
