start with an industry that:Thank you for you wisdom , however that seems to be my issue . I'm not sure what you mean by dig into "something" .

2) Already has people spending money
And do something...anything...even freelancing.
For example: I've been around the computer industry for years, and I like computers. So, I started doing freelance Access programming. My eventual goal is to build a SaaS business. Right now, though, I'm still doing custom software, but I'm managing the process and am not doing programming anymore. I hire people to do that for me.
The fact that I was a freelancer and in control of my own destiny gave me the ability to change my business slowly but surely into something that is more than just a freelance gig.

While I think he does some of the work himself, he was the chief salesman, and he was very good at that part of his job. Who knows where he is today, but he could have used that business to build into something bigger.

yeah, sure, CENTS is great (read MJ's book), but some people like me need to start with something more basic and build from there.
