We Make a lot of Money
Ideally, you can but not initially. You are learning how the operation works, hiring and firing, organizing, getting your taxes in order buying supplies, finding clients and getting everything in order. For the first two to five years unless you have a BRILLIANT idea and funding, you will probably struggle for a while but all is not lost. The benefit and the “high” of working for yourself is worth it if you can hang in there. Typically, the rules for minority entrepreneurs are different. We don’t often have a lot of financial resources and if we make the leap to being a small business owner the last thing we want are investors breathing down our necks but there are some ideas where you MUST get investors involved. As the old saying goes when you start-up use OTHER people’s money instead of your own or your family’s.
