I have thought of starting a business but unfortunately, I don't have the capital to do it. I will just buy a lottery ticket everyday. Cheers!!

when i was still in my younger years, i use to buy and sell items to augment my income as i have four children. direct selling business is tiring and collection risk is very high. to deviate my attention from selling, i opened my internet cafe because every time your customers step out from your edifice, it is always cash. Pretty safe, isn't it? And,.. my passion of writing and editing works of students is challenging and keeps my mind always active.

Yes, I have thought of it many times but the problem is, I don't have enough resources to do it.. I don't have a real stable job(due to my disease) and I'm in need of money to sustain my medical needs.. yay! if given a chance, i'd like to have my own food cart/food business or gadget shop.. you know, with the global recession and financial crisis, we should learn how to save for the future..

When I was a kid, my mother tried to gave some ideas in making a business. She really want me to follow her footsteps. Now I am old enough, I think she is disappointed. I am really not into business. I am not that good in money making. I rather work in a certain company than making my own company. Again, my mother is giving me another chance to join the franchising business for a beginner. Still I am afraid of taking a step.

Yah. Up until now I am still thinking even though I am still a student. I mean, I want a business like a computer shop with computer hardware and software store and of course with gaming store. Hehehe.

i get told i should start a restaurant because i supposedly cook really well and i love it. i don't think i'd like it though. i really just like to cook for my close family and friends. :)
i think it would be really hectic and hard to get started and everything too. plus, i wouldn't want to put my name on something and have other people cook my favorites lol. if they messed up the recipe or something, i feel like people would say, "that megan _____ can't cook this", etc. lol.
if i did open a restaurant, i know what i'd call it though. "megan's world famous" (lol) the reason is because when my father wants me to make him a specific meal or dish, he always asks me, "why don't you make some of your world famous ____?" or "how about you make some of your world famous _____?" he's silly, obviously lol.
good luck to you if you decide to go into business though! people are very successful with it, i just think medicine is a little more my path lol.
