As long as you aren't inventing a water car, you're probably in a six one way half dozen the other dilemma. If you do invent water cars, nice knowing you. Because even if you take out a good life insurance policy, it will somehow disappear. And anyone who might have a copy of your evidence of it will then also disappear. And you will turn up in the river. And conveniently, a day later, there will be a school shooting. In which not one of the victims will have any known birth records. The shooter will only target students known to have entered the country illegally, possibly having been trafficked, so there are no records. They're just media cannon fodder, to argue for disarming a farmer 100 miles away through government thievery and thuggery.
And the whole thing will be a cover up, as your invention is destroyed, lest anyone else get any ideas about ending Washington-imposed forced supply shortages by granting back to citizens the means to exercise their rights to travel freely, to assemble, and to depose tyrants and thugs, by force if necessary.
So yeah... if you want good business, and to live long enough to see the results, don't invent water cars.
Also, if you invent a device that is actually competent at defeating ocean pollution, expect to be ignored and ratioed, and your invention go to waste, as world lunatics instead tell all the media platforms they control to, in your place, prop up some delusional brat who thinks killing 1/5th of all human life is a better plan.
Build your own
Working in the field will teach you about the industry but the internet will offer the same lessons
There's no better teacher than experience.
Unless you have enough money to buy a turnkey, pay the staff (and probably bump pay to retain), and have the knowledge to keep it going, it's just going to fail.
Start small. Make something and sell it at a farmer's market. Or try selling your skills as a contractor.
There is a signficiant amount of "business" that is boring, time consuming, administrative, and repetitive.
Learning to be disciplined and keep on track despite those is hard.
Try it out. Starting small and building up reduces your need for start up capital and keeps your risks small.
What are you interested in doing? I didn't know anything until I met my now husband 11 years ago. He's a licensed mechanic and was renting half a building at the time. We got married and he said I should come and help him, do the paperwork, and help customers. Time passed, the owner of the building was getting old and wanted to sell it. My husband bought it and put my name on it as well. Occupational license is a pain in the ass, you will have to pay quarterly sales tax, the city is annoying and I guess you just have to have a lot of patience. But w/e you would like to do, go for it!

u What about a third option: working for an existing business with a clear understanding that you want the owner to teach you about running a business?
This would be outside the realm of experience for me.
You should work in that business similar to the one you want to start just to learn how it operates first.
Following this to see what answers come of it.
Study accounting, economics, and finance.
I pay 1300 a month. 800 would be nice.
