    YNF,

    Welcome to the Forum.

    I am currently working as a computer programmer for a medical billing company as my full time job. In my spare time I have started a small Web Design and Development Company called Creadiv. Which right now is something I do for some extra cash. I am developing a new start up that will be another design related business, but I don't expect in to launch unitl the beginning of 2009.

    My advice to you is find something you enjoy. It doesn't have to be unique or an extraordinarily brilliant idea, because there is always room for competition, but you will have to be willing to put alot of time and effort into whatever it is you plan on doing.

    Good luck in the future.
    Creadiv {Design & Development}

    Finding affordable quality logo and web design is tough, but we will work with your budget. PM me with your project and your budget and we will do everything we can to get you moving toward your goal.

    I am young and free as well and in the idea generating mode right now. I am not really interested but one business I heard that will boom with the baby boomers is an all in one financial consulting for seniors. Have everyone from Lawyers to analyst in one building so its a one stop shop for these elders and they don't have to keep driving around making appointments. Would like to swap other ideas if you have some of your own just need to find something I am passionate about.

    Hi YNF -

    I started my post college career as a lawyer...and I only practised for three months before founding - PrimeVisibility.com and Internet Marketing Company. I also launched OutdoorVisibility.com (a mobile billboard company) and FadToys.com - an Internet based bobblehead company...in short, I am having a lot of fun and earning an excellent living...

    I strongly suggest you start a business that is based on what you have STRONG passion and devotion for....when I was in law school I launched LazyStudents.com and my passion and drive for that business was gettig me 3M- 4M visitors a month and easily 120 orders a day...as a law student!! I knew than that the sky was the only limit with the Internet....

    I began in the Fine Art printing business because I had a lot of experience in it from High School... Honestly I feel it doesn't matter what type of business you begin it, I've met such a diverse group of people directly resulting from starting my business that I know I will be able to utilize as a professional network later on no matter what business I pursue.

    I went from a buisness/finance major to sociology/criminology. After graduation I was an actor in NYC for a couple of years and then went to law school. Now I practice law and am looking to become more involved in business.

    My point being, research and try out different things and hopefully you will find something you enjoy doing and that you will want to devote your energy toward. But most of all - try to have fun with it all!

    I am a financial analyst with a large company. But I'm also a big dreamer and I'm always looking for the next opportunity.
