    What are you good at? what is your passion, what is your day job now?

    You cant start a business just for the sake of starting a business.. you need to be interested in something..

    I kind of fell into my own business...through an independant web developer contract and went from there.

    makes for a rather unexpected tax filing for me =[

    Im lucky inherited my firm
    I probably couldnt start a firm now and earn money-too much competition
    Try acquiring a small money making business and work from there.

    You need a plan man.

    Otherwise you might as well flush it down the toilet, or light the cash on fire.

    don't just limit yourself to internet. If you can do something offline, but really excel at the internet side of it, you can have a huge edge I think.

    the main rule is to sell what you really like. If you are lucky to start doing what you really like, you'll have passion and unlimited time working hard to move your business

    Hi Don juan:)

    Well, like everyone said, you should have some sense of what u would like to do. What are u interested in? Perhaps sports or some other hobby where u would have a little knowledge that would help push you in the right direction. For example, say you were interested in writing and were a pretty good writer. Then maybe you might move in the direction of blogging for money. With this you could fulfill your passion of writing and make a living online at the same time.

    There is also other business modules you might try. A pretty good one
    is dropshipping products to custumers. This requires some knowledge of the the business so i suggest you type it into the search engines for more information. And also, if you decide to do this type of business, choose a reliable, good, Real dropshipper that has exactly what you need for the business products you want to have shipped to your custumers.

    Well, those are my 2 cents. I hope this gives you some ideas on practical business ventures you can start.

    I wish you good luck Don Juan:)
