The one thing that gets me is, think of how hard you worked for SOMEONE ELSE- and it sounds like we are a lot alike- now why wouldn't you do it for yourself?!?!?!
That and you're never gonna get RICH on someone else's tax ID #!!! Hang in there and I'll be coming at you for a quote soon!
Ah thanks for your encouraging words FNG. I agree with you 100%. As much as in my last job they made all these promises, i knew that it was bullcrap and surely enough years later they got super rich and i got like a $5 per hour raise. Its a good raise but not when i worked my ass off for 6 years to earn only $5 more per hour over the course of 6 years. Thats not even $1 per year raise. Its crap. Filthy Rich people make me sick sometimes, i dont want to be associated with them. and i never want to be so rich that i forget what its like to be a human being.

One day we'll do business together FNG...good luck with your own venture.

Either
Concrete and Block Masonry...again(Housing Market Sucks)
Urban Wildlife Managment(economy sucks)
A Quality Aquatics Store(First choice but risky)

Im just waiting for my GF to finish college and start earning comparable money to what I make then its my turn to do something I wanna do!
Wow Ryan, you have 3 choices that you're good at. Most people have a hard time finding one. You'd probably need alot of cash to get the aquatic Store started...and yes, its risky, but with my help, you can have an online store as well and make millions like Dr. Foster & Smith...we could even do a revenue share deal...like my sales pitch? lol

When you have a business that requires programs like maya/photoshop etc. people come and make sure you have all the required licensing. No way around it.
