Anybody in here star their own business? Any personal experiences with that kind of stuff?
What type of business are you looking into, me and a buddy opened our own supplement store a few years ago before i joined the military and sold him my part of the store
Yes that too. I was at the game last night and had a great time seeing them come back.
What kind of business are you talking about?
I miss being able to go to phillies v braves games. My gf and I somehow always found a small group of braves fans to hang out with and get heckled with.

I'm not really sure right now. I've been bouncing some ideas around in my head for the last couple of years, not seriously though. I'm starting to think about actually looking into doing something though on my own. Being I'm only 22 and going to graduate in December with a business management operations degree and with little debt (thank goodness for state schools), I figure it's something to strongly consider. To me, it seems like every idea I come up with has been covered by large companies and the market for such an idea is so saturated, a small business would be impossible to launch due to large competitors.
I'm not the type of person who wants to make a fortune and the next Google or something. I just want something that will provide myself and my employees a comfortable living through hard work.
My father spent ~30yrs in the army. He retired from the army when I was like 5 and has been doing consulting with the DOD since then. For the last like 8 years, he has had own company and has been working with various other industry powerhouses along with DOD. I think seeing how happy he is to simply be his own boss and how much work he does put forth into his company and the ability he has to do "family things" (because he is his own boss) makes me want the same for myself. I just don't know what exactly it is I want to do and don't have ~40 years of experience.
Just wondering what experiences fellow 4.6ers have had like Gt04.
