Why haven't you started a business yet?
>>
Cuz link is about to go bananas
>>
i have no idea what people want and how i can profit off that.
would love to see a business but i am probably in the "glass shop" idea of businesses IE i could sell glassware, i know that market but i have seen glass shops come and go which tells me profit margins are meagre. i dont have a valuable marketable skill either.

>i have no idea what people want and how i can profit off that.
1. Think about the thing you do best
2. Find people who need that thing done
3. Profit?
doesn't sound that complicated
>>
>>62728851
Can you only sell glassware or can you make glassware

running a business is for retards, vast majority of businesses fail. you have to want it bad BAD and you have to want to *run a business* not turn your passion or whatever bullshit into a job. running a business means you have to deal with a bunch of gay shit you don't wanna do, fuck up a few businesses and then finally learn how to run a business after 5 years. most people gave up before then because they don't actually want to run a business or they are too retarded or unmotivated to make it happen

I am an idle cunt who doesn't want to work hard LMAO

If you are young and broke enough to not stress about personal bankruptcy after defaulting on an SBA loan or can get VC funding starting a business is a no brainer. Heads you win, tails someone else loses, and if it doesn't work out a lot of companies like to hire failed founders.

Who needs you to do shit though when AI exists and can do it better, apparently
>>
>>62729001
Most people don't know how to leverage AI without wasting a ton of time, nor can it do stuff like plumbing or put together a computer etc.
>>
>>62728827
Because I need enough money to survive long enough it can become not just profitable, but profitable enough to live off of.
>inb4 "do it on the side"
Every fucking employer has egregious contracts now where you aren't allowed to build anything outside of your job without them being entitled to it.

What kind of retard made this bot post
Starting a new business is the ultimate form of gambling. Slots have better odds than new business ventures.

And if you fail with your business, you have to shoulder the personal costs you never made up. The business absorbs most of it through Bankruptcy, but anything it doesn't instantly falls into your hands, and you're still out of a job.

>>62728935
Also this yeah. Unless someone else is paying for it, don't bother.
>>
>>62729029
>you aren't allowed to build anything outside of your job without them being entitled to it
if they find out about it and it's also relevant to what the business sells
>>
>>62729042
Agreed

They can enforce a noncomp but if you start something completely unrelated the contract probably can't be enforced.
>>
>>62729008
>plumbing or put together a computer
two things a random high schooler or 3rd worlder can do.
seriously...PC assembly? that being a benchmark for a valuable skill was a freshman year of high school fantasy of mine.

>>62729039
>Starting a new business is the ultimate form of gambling. Slots have better odds than new business ventures.
the kind of dude charging like $5+/month for this kind of advice lmao.
and this group's favorite "business" is to run a test-ad on the internet with a $500-5000 and then see if the e-commerce shop should then be created.

From 100s of thousands of followers, they cherry pick a few that are Boomers with acres of NC cabin real estate, or olive contracts in Europe to tout as their success stories.

Meanwhile, I've been earning $200-300k/yr at W2 just fine the whole time. they purport that I should de-emphasize this to gamble with Meta ads.
>>
>>62729046
You'd be amazed how dumb high schoolers and third worlders can be.

Part of the reason employers love experience is we know if you've never done something before we're going to have to talk you through every single step even on extremely simple tasks.

>>62729054
You're already doing better than most business owners

But then you also represent less than 1% of workers

>Every fucking employer has egregious contracts now where you aren't allowed to build anything outside of your job without them being entitled to it.
Yeah this is bullshit. I have to make it trading because it's the only thing I can do on the side and keep for myself.

>>62729042
It depends how much money is at stake and who has more kike lawyers.
You can bet anything successful even tangentially related and they'll try to get a piece of it. I guess if you left tech to start a woodworking business it wouldn't matter. My techfag contract even says they own my art, fucking jews. I sometimes wish they had fired me over the vaxx.

people not being able to see or deduce my 130IQ and adaptability (lumping me in with the masses that will need 2yr to figure out an electric panel) is brutal.

I'm not genius by any means-on paper or in actuality-but I'm pretty effective...can't get into anything but $300k software engineering or Postmates (enjoyed doing wheelies while delivering sushi to get more ETH in 2019) due to all this credentialism, need to see specific experience or bust, etc

>>62729061
>You're already doing better than most business owners
for sure. thanks!
>But then you also represent less than 1% of workers
and ya lol, but I surprising amount of more useless people make more for doing a lot less. Need to cultivate some power/influence

I'd need to use my saved up 400k on a loan to start a business but I also need a that money for my house with my gf when we start having kids
>>
>>62729064
All rich people get sued. You can't let that stop you. Generally you just buy personal liability insurance and let the insurance lawyers deal with it.

would you?

The real reasons are all listed here in these threads

Lack of an idea
Lack of experience
Extreme risk
High failure rates
Lack of funding
Lack of time

In real life almost nobody says "I want to start a business," and THEN decides what biz to start. That's not how it works.

Usually what happens is somebody has a job and people ask them to do their job on the side for some extra cash and if enough people hire them they find themselves accidentally starting a business. And those are the ones that succeed because the business started organically with sales before the business actually exists

Just saying " start a business" isn't helpful. People don't do that. Even business owners don't usually do that.
>>
>>62728827
The other way businesses often get started is when you have a business and get a bunch of requests for an unrelated service or product. Then the owner might start a new business to serve a demand they're seeing.

But that's a specific case where the person starting the business already has the money, experience, and sales BEFORE the business exists.

The average person isn't going to know to start that particular business because they're not out there talking to clients all the time and hearing what they need. A lot of business opportunities aren't visible to the average person because it's not their job to talk to companies and listen to their needs or requests
