thanks...if your dad is a jeweler why don't you go into business with him?
I actually want to branch off because his shop is in a flea market...and business is not doing so well, people in the hood aren't buyingjewelry like in the Clinton days...and to top it off he was robbed a month ago at gunpoint by 3 goons in jason masks

The smaller businesses are usually the first ones to go in hard times.
 
its hard, the problem with opening a brand new business is that you either need to co-open it with someone or need to be well off already
 
i've wanted to open a laundromat for a while now. i've made business plans and everything but decided i didn't wanna dedicate my life to somethingi have 0 interest in.
 
For sure. I'm not going after a the label of a small business, but I have a good fundraising ideas for local sports teams that will bring them and thecommunities into other businesses.
