I can't keep living on a 9-5 I need to start a business, without being Jobs or Knowing Wozniak

This is dumb. The way I am living is dumb. The society I live in is dumb, I contribute to the dumbness too. Why do I keep living  like a loser in dumbness, grinding 9-5 making chump change, being a good cog that props up this society?

Yeah a lot of people think the same thing and no-one does anything about it. I want to do something about. I've always wanted to do something about it. I never knew what. getting an MBA won't fix anything so I need to start my own business and I'm not ready to risk it all but I'm ready to risk the majority of my checking account. I don't know how to risk it though.

  • Spend 10k on products to sell in a saturated online market place?
  • Spend 10k on products and try to wholesale them to local businesses?
  • Create a product, market it as a luxury product, and market aggressively?
  • Purchase an ATM?
  • Get into the contracting and construction business?
  • Start a Hair Salon



 

As an analyst do you do quite a  bit of research and financial analysis on companies? You probably thought hey, these guys are killing it, there doesn't seem to be much competition, the barriers to entry seem kinda low. Think about those businesses and services. Right now, I think construction and contracting are good fields to be in, but we know jack shit about that since we spent all this time in school and crunching numbers. So, the question is how do we steal these established companies' lunches.

How do we overcome our lack of expertise? How do we get others on our team ho have the expertise to team up with us without cutting us out?
