It's not that hard to be exact, at least with the example you give.<br />
<br />
A very important part of implementing a successful PLAN is accurate budgeting/costing. This is part of a process called "due diligence". In a nutshell, due diligence is anything and everything you need to do PRIOR to buying something, building something, starting a business, etc.<br />
<br />
It's understood that these numbers may change-- costs go up (or down), you think of other things you need, or eliminate others you thought were important, but aren't.<br />
<br />
But for the planning phase, go online and get the costs. Investigate what you need, and check a few spots to see what the costs are.<br />
<br />
Do NOT just "guess"-- this is a sure-fire way to screw up your PLAN. <br />
<br />
The more you flesh out your idea with specifics (thinking through the entire process), the better chance you have of succeeding.<br />

Thanks. I got a second class to go to later today, but I will still set time to do this. Without me reading the other ideas yet, I'm curious about something. Did anyone who mentioned a plan here actually see it through and do well, or did everyone just use this as a fun experiment?</div>
