Free RegistrationI love the idea of being able to run my own business. I like they’ll be able to help people, but choose how I do it but not only do I get to manage the business, but I also get to work as well within the business the thing that inspired me is probably the thought that if I pursue this and I build my own business one day to be able to retire my parents they’ve had many kids and they work hard every day and I would just love to be able to give them the gift of being able to retire.
How do you stay motivated?There’s many benefactors to this, but the first one being what I mentioned earlier every day when my parents come home from work and they’re tired and they still make supper and do things for me. It motivates me to want to give them back what they gave to me, but I also stay motivated in the thought obviously of making money and managing a business where I can meet new people. I would love to have money from a successful business to spoil me my family and friends.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would put that towards a reliable car because I don’t have automotive transportation, and having one would really be useful for being able to expand opportunities throughout the business that I would create for example, if I were to wash cars, I could expand how far away I could go to do that if I were to flip cars, then having a car would be very useful to go pick things up and to get materials so I’ll probably put that towards a car as an investment towards building a business.
