yikes, good question.  \n(1) set up a college account (or pay off their college bills) for our 5 grandkids\n(2) buy one of our daughters her dream horse farm\n(3) set up my dad with full time care AT HOME versus the alternative. He so wants to be independent and we want to give him that.\n(4) I love our home and life, so wouldn't want to change that - but maybe do some minor upgrades here and there. We have cars that are not great, but are all we need.\n(5) we have some priests that are very special to us - we would want to give them money to work on their special projects (seniors, youth and missions in third world countries)\n(6) put the rest in a cash producing income fund so we can grow old comfortably (not in luxury) but be able to not have to worry about waiting for retirement checks to pay bills

Think of relocating  as here in Canada there are more oppertunities than ever and if 'it's' possible to start 'your' own organization all the better...just need some investers....and that is the key...investers and a REAL PLAN......Since 'you' are at home have 'your' parents and such INVEST' in 'YOU'.....( after all that is where TRUST and such START....)...

Find a place to host it.  Check out the legalities involved.  Have waiver / permission forms including health insurance info.  Ask around for donations of equipment.  Contact local church camps to see if they have a program that you can get ideas from and get some input on the ins and outs and then dive in with open arms!

It depends to start a home like this you would have to incorporate in as a non profit organization and then you would have to go through the steps of establishing it as such, for details on how to incorporate a non profit organization look up the Foundation Center via Yahoo! and it will give you insight on that. Once you have establish your home the department of children and families inspect it to make sure that meets their criteria and requirements. And it also depends on the age of the people you are looking to provide housing for.

A number of people in your situation have started their own stores on e-bay. There are a number of books on how to get started. The e-bay site can give you a lot of information.

Start with the people who know you best and explain the basis of your beliefs. Start with one person who agrees and have them go out and do the same thing. Pretty soon the exponential power will bring you a flock as long as the dogma you put out is believable and aligned with the people you want to teach.

Find a nearby house which does have a landlord that allows them to recycle, and setup a plan with them. They might go for it.

Just click the Start a Group button on any Yahoo! Groups page. It will walk you through a simple set-up process. At the end of the process, you'll have created your very own group! \n\nAll groups must be properly categorized. To categorize your group, simply browse or search your way through the Yahoo! Groups directory looking for the appropriate category in which to place your group. Look for categories that list similar groups or are specifically related to your subject. \n\nYour group will be listed in the Yahoo! Groups directory within a few days. Yahoo has a team of category editors, known as "surfers," that go through the Groups directory constantly. They may come across your group, and if they feel it was improperly categorized, they may move it to a more appropriate location.

Well, instead of asking your friends to give a party, you ask them to hand out your card or catalog.  Some grocery stores and community centers have bulletin boards where you can post a flyer or your card.  I've seen "at home party" consultants place very small adds in the classefieds of their local newspaper.  You could ask the owner of a small, local business if you could place you business card on their counter and, in turn, give them something you sell that could make their business easier, nicer, et cetera.  Try leaving one of your catalogs or flyers in clinic waiting rooms.  Just a few ideas...

You'll have to start by working with Child Care Services. To start, you have to purchase a licensing packet and attend a free orientation class (pre-registration required). These are held monthly. Once you get all that done, then you can start working through the packet. Depending on what kind of day care center you want to provide (group day care, family day care, or child care learning center), click on the "Rules and Regulations" link on the left side of the page via the link below. \n\nGood luck!
