Is there any small business that is cheap to start?

[Workin']

I made $10,000 last year fixing computers nights and weekends. My company cost absolutely nothing to start up. I started out with 2 clients (my aunt and one of her business associates). I've never advertised or promoted the company in any way, all my work is from referrals.

I'm also a partner in an engineering consulting company with 2 other engineers. Our start-up costs were less than $5000, but obviously you can't go out and start a professional services firm without the right education and a lot of experience.

Making your own money is a great feeling. Much better than cashing a check as a corporate drone.

I sell drugs. The startup costs aren't too bad... you just gotta save up for that first pound of pure. Then you cut it up and off it. pm me for details.

In no time at all, you can get a pound of pure straight from Sal the Geep.

Edit: That'd be ritegeous

People have problems with their computer at all hours and they will call you. They won't care if you have a day job. It will consume you.

Ditto, I can relate to this. I thought it was a great idea at first and I just got out of it. Too bad my other friend is in it, it SUCKS.
