If you were an entrepreneur what business would you set up, if you could do anything?

I would set up a chain of cafes or restaurants with women in skimpy clothing like hooters.

either that or commodities as their cool and make money.

So what are we assuming we get handed to us here? Since that is really the limitation to what is a good or bad idea and what prevents us frol just doing it.

If I get nothing to help? I already have the network for establishing a fair consultancy as well as former clients. Recent work experience makes this rather viable for me.

If you get solutions for free, might as well just own the current AI scene with a few breakthroughs and cash out a few trillion so you don't need to think about it.

If we assume no magic ideas and solutions but just very favorable funding? Surely something simple and easy is what actually makes people happy? A busy area motorcycle garage. Some cameras, nice plot. Maybe one part-time employee and it runs itself for a good profit. Cars I suppose if we lack marketing.

Or just do the historically safest and easiest, albeit morally questionable, choice and go into real estate. Outsource handling tenants or hop on the NNN train with conpanies instead to avoid most complications? Again, outsource any actual work and cash a free repeating check.

I do think fairly boring ideas is what 99% of people would actually prefer and do better at. Most would be far better off with an automated laundry or something rather than anything you can't explain in one sentence.

I did it. Consulting on buy side diligence of M&A activity and operational improvement of investments focused on an exit plan.

• I'm selling my experience, analytical talent, risk tolerance, IQ, and leadership skills.
• Virtually zero capital investment.
• No or low brick and mortar lease or equity in office space.
• All of my clients come to me by word of mouth from friends or people I have worked with previously. All clients are pre vetted by known associates.
• Zero sales or marketing expense or time commitment.
• I can accept or reject any project based on my interest and the people involved.
• I can control my own calendar and choose how much I want to work vs how much time I devote to my personal life.
• The money is absolutely shameful and the projects are not that difficult for me.

Your first choice is not particularly a good one , very difficult , not sure why you'd make that choice? Maybe you are assuming this entrepreneur is loaded with cash , this is not always the case.

If everything was legal? Contract killing. I'd make some good fucking money.

If only currently legal things, private investigations.

Do you drive a VW Beetle, I wonder? 🤔😝

[robocop666]

private investigations is meant to be mostly following people for affairs. watch the show cheaters. you can always work for one.

[Agape93]

No?

I'm aware, and why work for one when I can employ them and make more money. I already make more than they do in my state.
