Whenever a group of people
talk about money troubles,
someone usually suggests
the person in financial peril
start their own business.
I don’t recommend that
people who need cash today
try to find that cash
by starting a business.
Starting a business
might not take a lot of money
but it almost always
doesn’t EARN money
immediately.
Most of us
are lucky to break even
in that first tough year.
It is much faster
to grab some temp work
that pays reliably
or
to get a job
at a quick service restaurant
or
to sell some sh*t
you don’t need.
All that might lead
to a business.
But starting a business today
won’t pay the bills today.
It is a longer term
source of income.
