It would be an animal shelter where the kids would work each day to care for the animals. That way, the kids could help the animals and the animals would help the kids.

I plan to do this eventually.
you are such a good person.

Why would you put that kind of money at risk in todays business environment??

If I HAD to:

Nothing food related.

Maybe a BAR.

Maybe an Automotive enterprise.

Nothing travel related

Id concentrate on the 12-24 yr olds to make money.

Get a 2 bedroom house and open a house of prostitution, run it by hand until you get some machinery.

so what would you open and why?
Rehersal Space Business.
Because the ones I know of have waiting lists and are full with paying tenants.

I'd buy junked WWII (well, pre-1950) military aircraft (primarily fighters and bombers) and restore them, then either sell them to mueums/collectors or rent them or just sell rides on them.

For myself, I would keep an La-7, an Me-262, an He-162, a B-17, and a Yak-9K.

ahhh, the glory.

I would probably only have the cash to start small, but if things went well I could grow into a giant multi-megahanger bidness.

Whoa, sweet. You have one customer already.

Good thing there are no Me-163s!

I'd produce a movie back in India... $500,000 x Rs.47 = 2.35 crores roughly (23.5 million rupees)...if I didn't use big name stars that'd be a pretty decent budget for a movie
