Passion, that's all it takes (of cos money too lah).

though I've mentioned all the pros and cons of my 7 years in retail business over at this thread http://retailbx.sg/f2/starting-a-ret....html#post7347 ; thread no. 32, I never regretted doing it.

you never know if you'll succeed till you try.

when I started my very first business - bubble tea, EVERYONE including my family refused to give their support, can you imagine how tough is that?! But I went anyway and in a year, I lost 150, 000 with lots of debts, paying off my butt till this day... it was an awful experience, but I did not stop.

Just before I wind the bubble tea business, I went into sterling silver with precious stones, see? I didn't give up just by failing once....anyhow 7years later I did throw in the towel because of my kids... if not, I think I'll still be in it...

so jiayou! do what your heart says. before rule of the thumb, PLEASE do ENOUGH research before you jump into anything....
