Starting a business is difficult and takes lots of failure to learn enough to have some success. I would get a job so at least you have enough income to live on while you try starting some business on the side. The job doesn't have to be great, as long as it buys you enough time. You don't want to be in a situation where your business MUST generate some income this month or you will be living on the street. That is dangerous. Anyway, I applaud your great desire, keep it up you will get there! Things worth doing are rarely easy, keep trying. Brian Hi Moana,

I'm a big fan of starting businesses with little or no startup cost, mainly for that reason that financing is tough and time consuming as you pointed out. Hey Mark I feel yah on that one.

Most of the articles are pure fluff and I have discovered numerous factual errors when researching some of the people/companies further. Moreover, as a budding entrepreneur, one of the biggest unanswered questions is how these people get financing, how they initially found distribution for their product, how they initially marketed their product or service. Sure, it's interesting to read about a company that has been underway for a few years and now the founders are making the big $$$. But so, so many of these articles in all of these magazines completely ignore the questions that plague most people like me starting up their businesses.

Sorry Brian, not trying to sell someone else's books, but it goes along with your advice to this question. I read a book years ago titled: Homemade Money: Starting Smart by Barbara Brabec
