The best business will depend on what you want, how you define to be interesting. A person may consider a pet sitting business to be the most exciting work in the world, while another person would rather watch TV than take care of dogs. \n\nThe key is to determine what your interests are, what you want to do, what is suitable for your lifestyle and your overall goals, and what can fit with your resources.\n\nDan Ramsey in his book "101 Best Home Businesses" has a chapter on how to find YOUR best home business. He suggests these 10 steps:\n\n1. List 5 things you do best\n2. List how others would benefit from what you do best\n3. Find out how to give people what they want\n4. Learn the value of your services to others\n5. Find out who else offers similar services\n6. Learn from the successes of others\n7. Learn from the failures of others\n8. Plan your own success\n9. Make low cost mistakes\n10. Enjoy what you do and how you do it\n\nHe then made suggestions on the best home businesses according to type. Here are a few of them:\n\nBest Businesses Using Craft or Physical Skills\n- antique restoration\n- auto detail service\n- carpet cleaning business\n- errand/delivery service\n- housecleaning business\n\nBest Service Businesses \n- bed and breakfast operator\n- caregiver\n- catering service\n- senior day care center\n- tutoring service\n\nBest Professional Businesses\n- desktop publisher\n- magazine writer\n- import/export service\n- income tax preparation service\n- event planner\n\nSome other home business ideas:\n\nTop 10 Home Businesses with Rapid Break-Even Time http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol33/breakeven.htm\n10 Profitable “Go-Out" Home Businesses http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol31/goout.htm\nLow Cost Startup Businesses http://www.entrepreneur.com/lowcostbusinesses/0,6617,,00.html\n\nYou can also check out the following books:\n\nTurn Your Talents into Profits: 100+ Terrific Ideas for Starting Your Own Home-Based Microbusiness \n The Best Home Businesses for the 21st Century \n 121 Internet Businesses You Can Start from Home \n The Best Internet Businesses You Can Start \n 101 Ways to Make Money at Home\n\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/BizIdeas/bizideas.htm

The easy answer is to ask family to back the idea with private loans.  Remember to treat it professionally rather than personal, money makes enemies out of friends.\n\nYou could also incorporate and give your family stock and by that partial owner ship in the business, but retaining a larger majority of stock than was given out so that you retain control, especially since I imagine you would be involved in day to day operations, but incorporating has rules that has to be followed and may be too complicated for your situation.\n\nAnd, when all else fails you can always try to get financing from a bank.

Start with Ten Mil and invest it in the stock market.\n\nWith some luck, you'll earn $1 mil (which is what I THINK you meant to ask).\n\nIf you lose 90%, you'll still have $1 mil.\n\n------------\n\nSeriously, as one who has done what you are looking to do, with the success levels you are talking about, I have to say that the BEST way to make a lot of money is to start your own business.  Look at it this way, if you work for someone else, you can pretty accurately predict what your salary will be over 5 years (even optimistically)- and it will probably be no where near $1 mil.\n\nSo, Here's the plan.\n\n1. Start your own business.  You should do something you LIKE to do.\n\n2. Set a target for who you are marketing to, and what product or service you are providing.  Define that well, on paper.  Perhaps you want to provide computer programming services for accounting firms, or provide financial planning services for wealthy men (>$2M net worth) in their 40's.  Whatever.  Define it well.  This sets your target customer.  It guides your efforts.\n\n3. Every SPARE moment goes toward building a business for your target... finding customers in that arena, building a product or service offering in that target range.\n\n4. Set a financial goal.  If you want to earn (gross) $1M in 5 yrs, maybe it looks like this:  Yr 1: 25K, Yr 2: 70K, Yr 3: 130K, Yr 4: 260K, Yr 5: 520K.  That would put you over 1M for the total, and with a growth rate that would put you over $1M in yr 6 as well.\n\n5.  PUT A PLAN ON PAPER.  What does yr 2 look like?  Who are you selling to, and what are you selling?  How many customers do you need?  How many employees do you need?  What does a budget look like?  (where would you be spending your money in year 2, to insure that year 3 produces the results that you need).  It's a GIVEN that your plan will be WRONG (one way or another), but it's CRITICAL that you do this ON PAPER.\n\n6. Read The E-Myth.  Michael Gerber lays out a roadmap.  (That was a guide for our multi-million dollar start-up)\n\n7. Hire people ONLY IF YOU MUST, and then HIRE PEOPLE SMARTER THAN YOU.  This is critical.  Most start-ups go "on the cheap".  Most start-ups fail.  Look for people that have succeeded in starting a business.\n\n8. Put your business plan into a "presentation", and present it to as MANY influential people as possible.  Amazingly MOST EVERYONE is supportive of the little guy who has the guts to go out on a limb.  Listen to their advice (and weigh it accordingly).  This is part "strategic planning" and part "marketing".  You are just trying to get the message out.  At the end of each presentation, ask "do you know of anyone who I should talk to, who would be interested in my product or service?"  Get leads.  Follow up on them.\n\n9. Keeping your eye on your target market and financial goals, turn down VERY LITTLE business down (initially) until you can meet your financial target.  Price your deals based on how close to the target they are.  For instance, if you choose to perform Landscaping for businesses, but someone asks you to help them with a residential job, bid the job so that it's "worth your time".  Don't ever complain that "this isn't my core business".  The only business you want to avoid in the early stages are the deals that don't have a clean exit or a paying customer.  If you can state your price, and do a job, and have a satisfied customer, and make a few bucks, that is golden!  You are looking for reference accounts.\n\n10.  When you are so busy that you have the luxury of being selective of the business that you take on, price yourself accordingly.  Some business you may want to say no to.  Other business you may want to price high.  Remember the TARGET set in Step 2.  If it's a "bullseye" deal (exactly the type of business you are looking for, with a customer that will be happy and refer

Two things come to mind:\n\nA) If you would like to try your hand at running your own business and know what you’d like to do for money, look into an organization called Junior Achievement. Their web site is http://www.ja.org. Junior Achievement is a well-known and well-respected organization that works with young people of all ages.\n\nB) If you want to open and run your own business but unsure of what you can do, check out one or several of the following books from your local library. Your Librarian may have access to other titles as well as these:\n\nFast Cash for Kids … Bonnie & Noel Drew\nBetter than a Lemonade Stand … Daryl Bernstein\n50 Money Making Ideas for Kids … Lauree & L Allen Burkett\nJobs for Kids … Carol Barkin & Elizabeth James\nThe Kids’ Business Book … Arlene Erlbach\nMaking Cents … Elizabeth Wilkinson\nMake More Money Than Your Parents … Mike Bundlie and Others\nHow to Be a Teenage Millionaire … Art Beroff

Donate 10% to charity and invest the rest. Find a broker nearby and that money could grow into something even more useful.

Everybody has bills to pay. Successful people never let circumstances control them. That is why you see so many people living mediocre lives because they let circumstances control them. You gotta overcome to become.\n\nAny kind of business will involve risk. If you do not have a huge capital to begin with, my advice is get a regular day job. Start your business on the side. Work hard in your business until the business income surpasses your day job income. Then quit your job and concentrate on building a bigger and better business.

Hi, I have no experience with this but I've found two sites that may help in starting up your business.\n\nGood luck!

First, I hope you have a formal business plan on paper.  You can go to the SBA about a loan at http://www.sba.gov, or if you live in a fiar sized city, there may be a local sba. Traditional banks will consider loaning too, but they will expect you to pony up or raise a lot of the cash on your own.\n\nAs far as other to invest in your business, I think you may be looking for a venture capitalist or "angel."  A venture capital firm or angel investor can provide you with startup monies, but it is usually an investment, not a loan, which means they would own a portion of your business, be able to sell their part, and have their say in how you run it.  Have a look at http://www.vfinance.com/\n\nA third option would be a grant....if you are a woman or minority, these are fairly common....just search on Yahoo here for small business grant woman or small business grant <<<insert race here>>>.\n\nBest of luck!  My wife and I went through this a few years back, and it can be a real hassle, but work and persistence in searching for start up $$$ can creat great results!

The first step is to decide what you want to do -- especially if you have no resources. Think first whether you want to start a beauty salon or you want a clothing store -- not both if you have no capital whatsoever.\n\nIt is hard to find grants to start a business. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. And yes, grants mean PAPERWORK - lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nI suggest you read the following books to get ideas of how to finance your business:\n\nFinancing Your Small Business  http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1572484500/powerhomebizguid\nSmall Business Financing: How and Where To Get It http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0808007386/powerhomebizguid\nFinancing the Small Business: A Complete Guide to Obtaining Bank Loans and All Other Types of Financing http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1580626815/powerhomebizguid\nThe SBA Loan Book http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/158062202X/powerhomebizguid\nAngel Capital : How to Raise Early-Stage Private Equity Financing http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0471690635/powerhomebizguid\nFinancing Your Small Business (Barron's Business Library Series) http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0764124897/powerhomebizguid

Apply through the bank where you keep your business checking account. You would want to be free of overdrafts. It helps to have at least a few thousand dollars in there as well, but not necessarily a requirement.\n\nA loan may take longer, but that same bank could be a good place for that as well. You would want to have a good business plan in place. An existing source of income will help.
