Default Who want to be your own boss ?

Hi personally i think most young people in sg want to start their own business.

But not much dare to do it. Most people are too comfortable in their comfort zone.

Lets discuss it here

young people want to be their own boss, but where can they find the capital to start up a store to sell things that they like.

the rental is sg is exp. who can afford it unless you are super rich.

Personally i want to be set up my own store, but where i can get money to do it. and also family committment to consider.

I agree!

It's the money issue...To set up a store is expensive.
And if you really do get a cheap one, which won't be super cheap also,
it'll be located somewhere deserted...

mmm, why would "be own boss" must equal to
- must pay rent
- must need high capital

Many business don't need both the above ;-)

I think alot has the wrong conception about "own boss" thus never take the 1st step to understand and be one ;-<

I get what you mean...
I was more of referring to the ones who wish to own their own store/business.

Not easy to start a business, but we can work and do part-time biz first and then slowly explore and get into it at the right timing. I really begining to like the pushcart concept more after attending the workshop. At least you will not get stuck in one location.

Hi,
I am new here. I have attended the pushcart workshop by Laissezfaire not long ago, that's how I know about this forum. I have long wanted to start a business but like some of them out there who does not dare to take the first step, so..... The thought is still there so I am looking around now for the products (intend to sell childrens and ladies wear) and hopefully I can start my first pushcart soon.

Thanks.
